sivdubgti 0 Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hi I bought a mk3 golf cab on a m reg with a vr6 2.8 obd2 1996 engine fitted ran sweet but was high miles and smoked a bit so bought a cheap 1995 m reg vr6 so removed full engine on the subframe and fitted it to my golf cab when I did the swap both car ran sweet and all I did was undid the engine loom on the big twist of connector now the prob I have it runs crap on start up idle really low and just don't sound healthy vag com say knock sensor and throttle sensor I've had the new knock sensor but still the same The throttle body sensors where both different looking back now it had a big flat type on the orig engine and on the new engine it's smaller sensor all plugs are on as I didn't have to remove them I just thinking are the looms different from fuse box to the twist of engine plug Now looking in to it it sounds like I had a 1996 obd2 engine in and I've fitted a obd1 1995 engine in so how can I sort this cheap and easyist Link to post Share on other sites
