Hello,
the other day Service light lit up and "ABS, ESP and Hill Assist faulty" message showed up on the display.
It happened on the startup and was gone after I've restarted the car.
Faults are these and they were all noted at the same time:
P0565
P0575
U1308
Could it be because of the dead-ish battery(12.3V when the car is off)?

Re: C4 B7 ABS, ESP and Hill Assist faulty
Here are the fault code descriptions - As you don't have an Electronic Parking Brake, I would ignore the Hill Start functions - but all symptomatic of the ABS / ESP - if the speed info is incorrect or the data is faulty - which automatically cuts out cruise control and speed limiter functions - so that's the reason for these 2 faults. Ignore those and focus on the others. It may go away on its own if conditions are correct.
Fault code | P0565 |
After sales description of the fault code | Cruise Control information: Not plausible or absent |
Description of the diagnostics | Conditions for activation of the vehicle cruise control not satisfactory |
Conditions of activation of the diagnostics | The following conditions have to be met - Engine management ECU in main triggering phase - Cruise control active |
Conditions of disappearance of the fault | Vehicle cruise control is authorised following a cut-off then reactivation |
Down-grade modes if fault present | Vehicle cruise control inactive |
Switching on of the warning lamp and/or warning message | - |
Main customer complaints likely | Activation of the vehicle cruise control impossible |
Suspect areas | Built-in systems interface CAN network ABS/ESP ECU Motorised throttle unit Accelerator pedal sensor Clutch sensor Automatic transmission control unit Piloted manual gearbox ECU |
Fault code | P0575 |
After sales description of the fault code | Vehicle speed limitation information: Not plausible or absent |
Description of the diagnostics | Environmental conditions for activation of the vehicle speed limiter not met |
Conditions of activation of the diagnostics | The following conditions have to be met - Engine management ECU in main triggering phase - Speed limiter active |
Conditions of disappearance of the fault | The vehicle speed limiter must be deactivated then reactivated |
Down-grade modes if fault present | Vehicle speed limiter inactive |
Switching on of the warning lamp and/or warning message | - |
Main customer complaints likely | Activation of the vehicle speed limitation impossible |
Suspect areas | Built-in systems interface CAN network ABS/ESP ECU Throttle housing Foot throttle pedal Clutch sensor Automatic transmission control unit Piloted manual gearbox ECU |
Fault code | U1308 |
After sales description of the fault code | No communication with the engine management ECU fault: No signal |
Description of the diagnostics | Possibility 1 - The time for recording the fault code is 500 milliseconds - Data from the engine management ECU absent Possibility 2 - The time for recording the fault code is 500 milliseconds - Incoherent data coming from the engine management ECU |
Conditions of activation of the diagnostics | Ignition switched on |
Conditions of disappearance of the fault | Possibility 1 Data transmitted by the engine management ECU Possibility 2 Coherent data from the engine management ECU |
Down-grade modes if fault present | Possibility 1 - The anti-lock braking system (ABS) function switches to down-grade mode - Immediate cutting out of all of the stability control ESP regulation functions - Hill start assistance function inactive - Switching of the electric parking brake to manual mode Possibility 2 - The regulation functions remain active - Hill start assistance function inactive - Switching of the electric parking brake to manual mode |
Switching on of the warning lamp and/or warning message | Warning lamp ESP/ASR Electric parking brake automatic functions deactivation warning light "SERVICE" warning lamp |
Main customer complaints likely | Illumination of the ABS and stability control (ESP) indicator lights |
Suspect areas | Engine management ECU downloading ESP ECU |

Thanks!
I'll fit a new battery tomorrow, hope it solves the problem.
