Right ive just got back on the Arosa after finishing the race car and found the fault with the starting, the crank sensor wire has been cut clean off (well almost just a small rubber section holding it on ) at the gearbox end i'll try to get a photo tomorrow.

Yep comfirmed the sensor was broken, the sensor removed looked old so cant see it was ever replaced, from what i can see the sensors sit at a funny angle and if not installed correctly the wire will rub on the inner edge of the flywheel.

If anyone wants to atempt this job you need to.........

Disconect the battery..

remove the inlet manifold / push as far back to the bulk head as you can

Unbolt the EGR metal pipe

Unbolt the coolant housing on the side of the head

Remove the plastic water pipe running behind the block

Unbolt the starter and move back slightly

then you will be able to remove the sensor.

Refit then clear all fault codes with Vagcom...
