  3. Thanks for the replies the cam sensor plug is the rounded type I had a look at the veh reg doc it was registered in january 1998 so its a very late vr6 I am going to call VW see what they say
  4. The question I would like answered is, was the 12v vr6 golf ever fitted with this sensor arrangement from factory ? I did vag com and its got a fault 00515 short to ground checked the wiring all ok so there must be a fault with the sensor £56for a bosch one ouch see what happens when it arrives next week I will let you know
  5. the car is a UK vr6 on a R reg 1997 I am swopping the engine and using a obd1 engine so if this sensor came out of the original car the I would have thought it needs to go back in so the ecu can receive the correct signal
  6. fog light connectors will be in the main headlight loom the round connector tucked away to the left of the bonnet catch (standing facing the engine) the one near the engine could be the after run coolant pump can you here the pump working when you switch off the ignition if not I noticed a vr6 with a sensor in the hose that leads to the heater matrix from the back of the cylinder head I have never seen this layout before here's a pic it may be some thing to do with the electric aircon hope this helps

  9. was down looking at my cams today and noticed the cam trigger is different to all the other ones I have see before when I checked the part number and looked on line the trigger I have is described as a phase sender. Trigger for camshaft position sensorFor vehicles with engine number from 260 001 onlyUsed for variable valve timing. my engine number is higher than 260 001 so I should have this part fitted can anyone shed any light on why there are so many trigger points on the part I can not see the vr6 having variable valve timing without some way of physically rotating the cam in questio
