HELP PLEASE, vr6 turbo will not start :(
kie_dub replied to kie_dub's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Engine speed sensor?? Do you mean the sensor thats leaking oil at the front? That aint been changed yet because i cant get to it without getting it on the ramp at my mates work, and cant get there without the car starting lol. Is this sounding like the coilpack? or has anyone got a clue whats happening ? -

the one on the left here ??? > http://www.ross-tech.com/vcds/download/ Mines 409.1 lead so is that still the right software as the other is called 409? AS for the usb port set up, how do i do that, i plugged it into a usb slot, then run the vag com in the car and did the test thing, 3 didnt work and 1 said its ok, obviously the one i had it plugged in to... is that how you mean by set up the usb? Sorry if these are really daft questions but ive never used it before EDIT: p.s the page i have put a link to, if it is the one on the left i need to download is it the blue writing i click or one

Ive tried to find the answers on here but i cant get any. What it is is ive just got my vagcom off of ebay today, ive got windows vista ive heard it can be a right pain off some people and its easy off others. Ive installed the drivers off the disc i got with it (think i have done it right) But in the read me doc, it says if you have vista then run such a such a folder... opened said folder, and there are just a load of files, clicked a few but nothing happens, theres nothing that you simply click and it runs itself and installs whatever Its the 409.1 driver, downloaded the software that seems

Right ive just been having a fiddle with the car trying to get it started. Found that when i was turning the ignition from on position to start the fuel pump was cutting off. When the ignition is turned to on there is a strange clicking sound coming from the fuse box area. Found that the noise was coming from a relay in the fuse box.something to do with the fuel. So removed this and tryed my mates relay in my car, but his does the clicking sound in my car aswel! :s Put my relay into his car and his works with mine in... very strange so anyone got a clue pleasssee? -

my oil leak.. the oil is leaking from an oil sensor, ive got the part just need to fit it. Im not someone that leaves a problem to get worse i like to get it sorted asap. I can hear the injectors, they sound the same as they always have done. Like ive said i aint with the car at the minute so i just need a list of things if you get me so i know where to start and what to look for. Where should i check for a spark? sorry im a dunce when it comes to mechanics -

a spark from where, each lead? if so then no, only checked the above so far -
I went to start my car ( 1996 obd2 mk3 vr6 turbo ) yesterday morning but it didnt want to play ball. Turned on the ignition, all clocks lit up as normal, fuel pump sounds like it normally does (uprated and noisey) injectors are squirting as they should, went to turn it over, the starter motor turns over but the engine just isnt firing up! left it 10 minutes and tried again but nothing. Had to abandon it as i had plans and got picked up. im not with the car now so i will try what is suggested when i get home. So yesterday when it wouldnt start i made sure that all the ignition leads where pushe

Dilemma! High mileage buying opinions
kie_dub replied to Leon R's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
My mate bought a vr about 3 months ago for 600 quid, had some rust on the arches, currently in the bodyshop getting resprayed for free by a friend. So he will have a sweet vr6 for under a grand. Just simply shop around, dont rush into it, and keep your eyes peeled for the bargains out there. The thing with the vr6 is the prices are up and down all the time -
i had a browse at the stand it looked sweet! all the cars looked in place. was a wicked day, no pictures on my behalf because i get stressed when people walk infront of ya when your trying to take some so i just admire everyone elses lol

You need to get there for 9am or before to beat the que mate, but if your anything like me and dont like early starts on a sunday morning, just go when you feel like it and be patient lol. If i went to get there for 9 i would be bored before dinner time and have nothing to do for the rest of the day lol
