Fault Codes

Can anyone give me the descriptions for the following fault codes it is for a 1.6i polo 8v with a Bosch motronic MP9 fuel injection

00524
03840
00519

the 00524 and 00519 faults are sporadic but I need to find out what these things mean because my car really has a big power loss problem

Thanks for any help
Fanie

Re: Fault Codes

Sounds Like i would start checking grounds seeing how most of the stuff is showing too high voltage. Check chassis ground & check also the grounds to the computer mainly.
