HI,
My wife has a 2004 Charade and it has developed a weird problem. At low speeds and round town it is fine, however if we go ever 65 mph the abs light comes, the steering goes really light, and the speedo stops working. If you switch engine off it seems to be ok. has anybody got any ideas.
Thanks in advance

I'm certain your car has
I'm certain your car has Electric Power Steering driven by an electric motor which is speed sensitive, I would of thought the steering should stiffen up at speed not go lighter. If all 3 things are happening at exactly the same time I would say it's an electrical problem. I cannot think how they are related though. Does the problem go away if you drop below 65 mph/stop or only after you restart the car?

speed related fault
The faults remain until the engine is switched off. Sometimes it takes a couple of hours for it to totaly reset itself. However we can drive it round town and under 65 and never get the fault, we should take it in but wife only goes any distance once every couple of months.
