Steering and one touch system stopped working

Volkswagen Vento 2007  100000 miles
Hello, once I finished changing the control arm bushings and a bellows from the constant-velocity joint, I started the car and the red steering light appeared on the dashboard. Also, the front windows' one touch system was not working any more. Before I decided to change those pieces the car was working perfectly. I would be very glad if you could give me a helping hand.

If you removed the steering ends hitting them, the most probable thing is that you broke the sensor from the power steering column. You don't need to change the whole steering, which is really expensive; you can try replacing the sensor and your problem should be solved.

Hello, I finally solved my problem. I had to change the steering rack and the failure disappeared. Thanks for your comment anyway.

Oil light turns on

Volkswagen Vento 2006  145000 miles
The oil light indicator turns on. I've taken it twice to the agency. The first time, I was told that the vehicle was mechanically perfect and that it might be a failure in the sensor plug. The problem persisted so I returned ten days later, left the car a whole day there and they are now telling me that the problem is solved, but the light keeps turning on.

The oil light usually turns on because the chip that is under the crankcase is either disconnected or loose. Remove it, clean it and connect it again and your problem will be solved. In my case, I sticked it so that it does not move any more.

Display turns on and off

Volkswagen Vento 2006  87000 miles
Hi, I hope you can help me. The display on the middle of the dashboard turns off and on every now and then, as if there was a loose wire or something like that. I have no idea which are the wires that need to be checked.

I wanted to share that I was finally told that the display was damaged and that was the reason why it worked intermittently. I had to buy an old-line dashboard, remove the one I had and install the one I bought. It was necessary to reprogramme the dashboard with the memory and other stuff it brings. The other option I had was taking out the display from the bought dashboard and install it, but it was quite risky the manipulation of the fragile elements. Hope my experience helps someone else in the future.

Power steering very uncomfortable

Volkswagen Vento 2011 Vento Manual transmission 25000 miles
While driving when the steering wheel is moved there is resistance and there is a small "tak " noise but once the steering starts to cut in there is no more resistance from the steering wheel. The power steering works well but it is strenuous to drive because there is constant force to be overcome on the steering wheel for even the smallest movements of the wheel. No steering warning lights come on
