Vw chico keep blowing gasket of oil filter
There is a relieve valve inside the part that holds your oil filter. It sounds like it may be stuck open which causes too much oil pressure to be relieved on the filter causing it to blow. So this art needs to be taken off and inspected.
Abs light traction on handbreak light flashing
Did the handbreak get pulled by chance? There should be an adjustable switch at the end of the saddle- it may just be coincidence,Is the handbrake cable loose at the wheels? Moving it around should free it up if they had been set and are hanging up.
OIL FILTER SEAL BLOW
Is this all info? Oilfilter seal can and will blown if the engine doesn't breeth right, if the camchamberpressure is blocked, this happens. You must check that all the hoses are clear. Sorry about my english, I'm from finland, and I dont' have any translator nearby:)
Vw golf door lock
the lock is held in the door by a large "c" shaped flat spring plate . If you have the lock bit in your hand it will be that clip and you will need to remove the door trim to get inside to replace it in the small groove just under the edge of the lock
Brake lights stay on although the brake pedal is
You will probably find it is a problem with the switch on the brake pedal.
Get your self a cheap multi meter from an electronics store. Set it to meaure ohms. This is used to check if a connection is complete.
Take the wires off the switch on the brake pedal and test if the connection is open or closed. Push the pedal and check the connection again.
If the switch only had one wire then the negative connection is made to the body of the car. Put one probe of the volt against bare metal of the body somewhere and the other agains the terminal of the switch and test again.
This should tell you if the switch is broken. if the switch is good then you probably have a short circut somewhere between the brake lights and the switch. That is something has pinched or other wise broken the wire and it is touching metal of the car. You will have to follow the wires as best you can and look for damage.
Hope this helps
Glow plug flashing
Have the glow plugs checked and the wires that go to them. They may not be transfering the power or you have glow plugs that are not working.
