brokenvr691 0 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Firstly hi all, i'm new to this site. I dont really have any experience with cars and i'm learning on my vr6 which needs pretty much everything replaced lol.My problem at the moment is that i cant get it started. It went off the road about a year ago, after failing an MOT. it occaisionally got started but the last time was about 6months ago before the battery died. I've replaced the fuel tank, battery, plugs and leads and still wont fire up. I have to bypass the ECU for my fuel pump to work and fuel is getting to the fuel rail. i have a healthy spark and the starter motor is working fine. as i say it started fine before so i am at a loss as to what to do next. any help or ideas would be great. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
T0NYVR6 2 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Have you got VAGCom to check diagnostics? Link to post Share on other sites

brokenvr691 0 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 I was searching e-bay for VAGcom my vr6 is OBD1 cos it's a k plate, so should it specify that on the descrption or will OBD11 VAGcom work just the same? Link to post Share on other sites
