  1. i have tryed another maf . of my old car it was a missfire at very low rpm not leads coil pack ect also changed over the cam sensor as that was very dirly . swaped over my stanless system including lambda probe fault is still there . i can now see that its running far to rich sooting up my decated stanless exhuast badly even over a few miles . There was hardly anything left of the cat suspect the overfueling is causing the misfire same as if u pull the choke out to much . no codes are stored in the ecu but have not been able to see what the sensors on the engine are doing as of yet . should
  2. i would say thats dead mate happened to me about 10 weeks ago only god thing is that i had agreed a value so i go paid what it was worth http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?197447
  3. the plug and switch are both yellow . then the other plugs and switches are again match . unless when my car was built they ony had a/c engine looms ? my old obd1 car only had 2 thats whats thrown me to be honest . both dont have a/c i will have a go at changing the blue switch and let ya know how i get on. also i will beable to use my mates sun code reader at the week end that can see all the sensors so i will pull each 1 off and see what it does .
  4. sounds like u might have a tappet fella might be worth putting a oil flush in . i would not use any thing thiner than 10/40 to be honest .

  7. if u take the door trims off u will have holes left plus indentations would look all wrong . maybe go for the obd 2 spec smoothed bumpers and trims as the old black plastic trims dont really brake the colour up any way . http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://designercars.nl/biler/VW-model-846.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.designercars.net/membercars/1839.php&h=320&w=400&sz=35&hl=en&start=15&um=1&tbnid=XQWBXKZFyVyyQM:&tbnh=99&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3D%2Bvw%2Bvento%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox%26rlz%3D1

  12. car seams to run on 5 and a half under power and low speed low rpm. also when cold if u rev it hard drops atlest 1 cylinder . changed the usal suspects plugs leads and coil pack any thoughts?
  13. i would not be so sure that the 2 are not connected fella on the back of vw radios they have 3 plugs its been a long time but i think some of the wires in the 3rd plug go to the conveince control unit or they did on passats its been probably 4 years since i worked on vws

  20. the car is mine anyhow agreed value policy the problem is that its twisted the back when u look underneath, i think the braces i made to hold the amps gave it a lot of extra strenght it would of looked a lot worse . just glad it was lowered or he would have gone under me . the hit was hard enough to fire my ashtry out of the dash . it landed between my legs . i might be able to get it fixed but the cheaper option is to reshell her as its only my time to pay 4 found a m plate derv on ebay for 400 it going to cost more than that to get it pulled out plus it need boot lid rear panel nsr quater
