crish72 0 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Are you 100% sure the leads and plugs are ok?Only mine did this recently and i thought the same but i eventually replaced the plugs and leads and it cured the problem... Link to post Share on other sites
ip 0 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Zorro is right. My leads looked brand new, no visible arcing when running the engine at night (even when sprayed with water). I replaced everything (MAF, coil, lambda, plugs, temp senders.....the works). Turned out it was the leads. I bought these and the car has run great since:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-GOLF-MK3-VR6-CORRADO-VR6-PLUG-LEAD-SET-C247_W0QQitemZ200269469611QQihZ010QQcategoryZ9889QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247Really cheap and really good.
