Usually EPC, means electronic pressure control. This is a solenoid inside the transmission. Very common replacement part. Being it is a VW, it could be some thing else. Have the codes read and repost.

Hi there, I'm guessing your vehicle is a VW or Skoda, Seat etc. The EPC light displays when there is an Electronic Power Control fault, these can be caused by many different component faults. It really needs to be plugged in to a diagnostic reading tool to identify the fault code that will have flagged up.

First of all you need to access the Engine Control Module (ECM) using suitable diagnostic equipment connected to the data link connector of the car, in order to pull out all DTC's memored. DTC = Diagnostic Trouble Code. Then you will bu full informed about the root cause of the problem, and you will be able to repair & replace bad pieces and reset the ECM. Then the EPC (Electronic Pedal Control) yellow light will turn OFF.

It sounds as if your vehicle may have severe water damage to the engine. The engine sensors on the golf are suseptable to water damage and can result in epc light that you are seeing on your dash, or so i was told by VW. I replaced all the sensors, alternator and the computer on my original engine, but this action didnt fix the problem. So i bit the bullet and replaced the engine, and haven't had a problem since. If you do the labor yourself it can be done as cheap as $4000. I hope this helps mate.

good luck

Hi Just,
Check the brake lights for blown fuse or lamps....what ever has blown replace....If the dash light is still on you'll probably have to take it for a scan and have the code canceled...

It could be a loose or defective gas cap.

Difficult to say how much but sounds like fuel issue, most likely o2 sensor fault or catalyst both relatively expensive but the catalst more so, o2 sensors fairly common on these and would guess approx £180 .whch i guess equates to around. $320 ?? supplied and fitted.

the electronic power control module malfunction lamp. generally the problem is the brake light switch which is under warranty b/c of recall. check with your local dealer.
