M44 DUB 2 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Right guys need to pick your brains! My vr6 (1995 coilpack engine) has been a complete nightmare to start for the past little while,when your starting the car,(hot or cold makes no difference)you need to give it loads of gas,sometimes it will start with gas but other times it will start,rev to 1000 revs then cut out! We took it to star performance where we fitted a brand new bosch air flow meter but still no difference! The car has been de-catted so now im starting to think along the lines of the lambda sensor or crank sensor! Anyone ever had this kind of problem as its doing my head in lol, thanks in advance!!!Blue temp sensor has been replaced also. Link to post Share on other sites

M44 DUB 2 Posted January 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 I have no idea, can't even find a haynes manual for the bloody thing. Where about would i locate this ISV? Link to post Share on other sites
993turbo 0 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The ISV is a sylindrical unit on the side of the throttle bosy.. (if u have one) Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Have you had it on the VAG-COM yet? Link to post Share on other sites
M44 DUB 2 Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 No as i don't have a copy of it. Been trying to get ahold of one for my laptop but no luck. No one on SVAG is really that into helping me either by plugging it in. STAR performance did do it when they fitted the new MAF but said only thing that is showing is it has an immobiliser fault.

Focker-out 0 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 If it has an immobiliser fault it will likely be showing as an intermittent fault, act on this and im 99% certain it will cure the fault Link to post Share on other sites

M44 DUB 2 Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 replaced the idle control valve today,still no better,it is like the car is overfueling! Its really annoying now! Whats the chances of it being the crank/cam sensor?or lambda? Thanks for the replies! Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 You really need to get it onto VAGCOM. Otherwise you will be changing things for no reason Link to post Share on other sites
