s11ybm Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Hi All!!I need some assistance.In June the car wasn't driven or even started for a few weeks (3-4weeks). Now every time we take the car out, the engine management light comes on, and after a while either the epc light comes on and car doesnt go past 3000 revs or the car cuts out when its stopped ,followed by the epc light.I'm going to take it to a garage tomorrow, but wanted an idea of what could be wrong. Also is there anyone in the Ilford/Essex area that can kindly plug the car in to a VAG-COM to see what faults there are?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidelliott294 Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) If it doesn't go past 3000 in means the car is in limp mode. That's all I can contribute . Edited September 21, 2012 by davidelliott294 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s11ybm Posted September 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Cheers david...I thought that was the case!Just had a thought..i may give AA a ring, i'm sure they have the ability to read faults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fob163 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Your HT leads may have gone, same happened to mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s11ybm Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 I replaced the HT leads earlier this year. I had the AA out over the weekend, they done a scan and it came back with fault code P0322. They said the camshaft sensor needs replacing. Any know the best place to get the sensor? Eurocarparts have it for £30.. Is it best to get a VW one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1cr08472 Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Ring VW up and see what they charge, you never know it might be the same price for a VW one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
