Ciaran 4 Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 last week my car refused to start so i locked the car and opened it a few times and it started.at the weekend it would only turn over and not fire.Today the AA came got it to start but when i held the throttle slightly in at the same position the revs rised and fell and it backfired each time.Believe it may be a cam shaft sensor as i could here the fuel pump relay cutting in and out which was causing the car to rev and backfire.Car is now at an auto electrician who is going to vag com the car see what the crack is and hopefully fix it.anybody else had similar problems??

rodney 17 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 well if its just dropping out then its not generally coil packs etc... and more likely to be a sensor, MAF, or fuel pressure (to much is poss as well as to little pressure). Did you manage to drive it? Was it the same effect under load?? Link to post Share on other sites
Ciaran 4 Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Once it started it seemed ok. may try cleaning the MAF crank sensor and cam shaft sensor once i get home garage have it at the minute and are going to give it a vag com which should hopefully show up anf faults!!the car was fine under load although the odd speradic missfire at times.
