Vauxhall Astra 5 door SRi 06 plate C0131 error code fault?

Hi,

The traction control light has appeared on the dash, Ive connected the car up and it is telling me it is the Error C0131 pressure sensor circuit malfunction.
The car is out of warrenty and I was preying someone has had the mis-fortunate like myself but has resolved the issue?
Ive done abit of research on the net but nothing conclusive comes from it apart from I might need a new ABS unit costing just short of £1000 and then someone has to fit it.

Any advice will be appreciated as I try to sort these things out before admitting defeat and paying someone to do it.

Cheers,

Mike

hi i ve just had the same fault and my local dealer has said that i should replace the ecu for the abs unit first if this does not work then a new abs unit will be required which comes with an ecu then this will need to go on computer to match to car.the ecu is £482 and the full abs unit is £1317 so might as well scrap my car
