Good brand outside of a Bosch oem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Look in the rectifier assembly! There should six diodes In there. Sounds to me like your rectifier is not doing its job transferring a/c volts to d/c volts which is your output. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Check diodes, they are the first usually to go, then the regulator. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Over engineered! Lol! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Wow, amazing how vw’s are so sensitive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Mine didn’t show any MAF issues in vagcom either however it ended up being the MAF in my case. On these older OBD1 ECUs rosstech doesn’t. Pick up a lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

So be it! But at least check that it’s working properly because it’s like chasing a ghost! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Reconnect PCV! Important part! If no change after unplugging MAF or It runs better it’s the MAF. The MAF tells the ECU about your air intake, then the TPS tells the ECU what your rpms are. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

As far as the 02 goes if all else is good then your checking for voltage reference which is 0.10 0.90v or 1.0v Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Had this issue for a while and thought it was something else. New MAF fixed my hesitation and erratic idle. If your idle stays low but idles good you have to adjust the idle stop on the TB. My guess is vacuum leak somewhere and or ISV. You can take the ISV off and clean it out with carb cleaner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Check your MAF first because if the 02 is sensing low oxygen which is a rich condition hence the reason you have grey ish smoke then you want to check other issues first. MAF first. Pull MAF connector and no change your MAF is on the fritz. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Check for vacuum leaks. Let me look into procedure for 02. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Check your MAF and 02 sensor. Pull MAF connector and it runs better it’s your MAF. I’m running the same engine in my daily 95 Passat! Google 02 test Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The pictures I’ll post will shed light on the subject. If you have yard close by just go take the handles from any Mk1-2-3 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

You have to get the lock cylinders out and if you have other handles laying around you can lay out the wafer tumblers, take the them all out of existing cylinders being carful not to lose the springs in n the holes. Take all the springs out. Once there out put one spring and one wafer in and push down on it til even with cylinder starting at the head or entry way. The put the ignition key in and see if it lines up with cylinder surface. If not try another wafer. If it looks good try it in the handle to make it doesn’t bind as you turn it. Try all positions and if you don’t get all 5 to work, 3 is good enough. Don’t put any springs back in the other 2 empty slots. I’ll take pictures of the procedure later this evening. Pretty sure Mk1,2 and 3 use the same wafers but check to make sure with your existing ones because I haven’t done one these in n a while. CPL locksmith Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Ok I found the place for the injectors. Hp ones too! Fiveomotorsport.com/fuel-injectors/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’ll do a search but ya I bought new ones for the wife’s VR and they do sell performance ones as well. Good quality! I carb spray/pulsed all 6 on my 180K VR and have no issues at all! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I did mine using step down tubing down to carb cleaner tube and it worked great. Make sure to back flow test. And Eastwood chassis Black is an excellent choice as a painter it works great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The sounds mine makes is fantastic with 2.5” stainless/ high flow cat and two borla’s and a K&N filter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I better check mine then. I run 10-50 on all my vw’s year round. Chains and guides done at 180k US measure I do have tap at cold start and idle until temp raises and it quest down to half. Bought it at 170k so it could use new lifters and a pump check. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I know that on my b4 the handles white nylon mechanism has to be on the lock lever to work right. Mine pass side would go back up if it wasn’t aligned correctly. You can check ohms with a multimeter at the handle plug to see if you have resistance at all. I heard that the micro switches can be repaired to some degree. Search Jetta/golf forums for that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

There are actuators in both doors and a pump in the rear side panel. So you’ll have to take the panels off and see what’s going on with pass side actuator. Probably a leak on that side. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It’s the same on the mk2 scirocco as I now remember the boot will lock/unlock all the locks when working but boot won’t unlock from front driver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
