Ive been driving for 4 years ,3 points for doing 91 in a 70 and 6 points for doing 58 in a 30.

I have a strange problem on my GTI. When driving along normaly the car suddenly loses power and starts missing. When this happens I switch off the ignition and turn it on again and it runs fine again for a while. The check light is also on.
Any ideas?
i also have this problem, im going to get new plugs and leads and see if it sorts it, if you find out what it is could you please let me know. cheers

i had a similar problem to this, it turned out to be that the pipe from the sunroof drainer had come off , and the water was running onto the electrics in the passenger foot well , and now my central locking doesn't work.

it looked to have bucket seats, i could be wrong though.
-
Seen you pulling out of petrol station nr M1 friday morning around 8ish
-
i will have a look at that 2moro cheers, sometimes the central locking works, but the majority of the time it doesn't

VW's have a problem with there sunroof, dunno if there the same as the golf, but there are two drain lines from the sunroof if they become blocked water will leak in to the car. Apparenly you can blow them out with an air gun.
Untill youve fixed the leak, i doubt your be able to stop your alarm going off.

ive cleaned the pipes out with a air hose and re sealed the pipes, but a little bit of water is still coming in occasionaly

Ive had 2 GTi's and both have done it.
-
still have'nt sorted mine out, but when i had a look the other day i found water was running down the passenger door pillar from the sunroof, and leaking into the wires on the left hand side of the footwell. I sorted this problem and dried it out, but the alarm is stiil going off when i use the central locking.
-
ok cheers , i will try these 2day
-
Try pressing the little button behind the drivers seat & see if it still goes off when you've pressed that - that switches off the interior sensors.
ive tried that aswel its stiil going off, cheers any way, any 1else have any suggestions.
-
is your boot light staying on?
could be triggering it?
no its not, any 1 got any more suggestions ?
-
