Sausage Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) What code was it? It helps because you can look it up and narrow it down some more... If you have 2 keys try the other one for starters. Otherwise temp sensor is a good candidate if your temp gauge is reading off.

lupo 1.7sdi Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 If the spark plugs have no spark and injectors do not receive fuel when it does not start then check/replace the Hall sender (G40) http://workshop-manuals.com/volkswagen/golf-mk3/power_unit/motronic_injection_and_ignition_system/ignition_system_glow_plug_system/servicing_ignition_system/removing_and_installing_parts_of_the_ignition_system/ Fault of immobilizer causes the engine to stop to a one second after starting.

mickyfinn Posted May 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 evening folks,the seat runs fine till warms up then cuts out for while to cool down I guess . so far car has had new distributor ,coolant sensor,ignition coil,leads are ok,new plugs,new ignition switch,just cant pinpoint fault or with scan unit . I think it might be ecu fault,has anybody come across this fault or similar . thanx muchly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Get VCDS on it and read the temperatures there, if the ecu is reading very wrong temps from the sensor it will be throwing a wobbly, if the temps look about right then it is elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
