ip 0 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 VW Mike is right. Symptoms are too vague. Could genuinley be any of:MAF, Lambda, Temp Sensors, Injector failure, coil failure, ecu failure, cam position sensor failure ....... Anything really!If you own, or have access to, a laptop. Buy a vagcom interface from ebay (about £20) and then you can read any fault codes directly off the car yourself. This will save you a huge amount of time/money and you'll be able to get much better responses from forum users.If you are planning to keep your car for any time at all it will pay for itself easily and is a peice of piss to use (just plug in and go).Cheers,ip Link to post Share on other sites
mike 6 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 ok where do i go that aint gonna be pricey???well i take mine to midland vw and the vag com it free there to give you a quiote, might be too far for you...they suplied and fitted a used ecu and coded it for 150...but as above could be anything....
