  1. Mine was a split wire inside the sheathing, for the throttle potentiometer , also very difficult to find.......which I found by pure luck :)
  2. Hi, It's a subject that's been covered a lot Go to advanced search, it's above and right Type in 2.0 16v idle problem and you'll get plenty to read.......I'd have done it for you but only on my phone Oh and welcome btw :)
  3. Could it have been broken when you took it out the box? If so I'm sure you could send it/take it back?
  4. My boy is now 16months, I have him up front with me........it's a maxi cosi, something or other.........it does fit in the back but it's way too much hassle, especially when it's easy enough using the front. He enjoys it better there too :)
  5. Good to hear its sorted mate, we'll need to meet up at some point.......would like to find out rough costings for a job like this :)
  6. No stress, not too fussed as I already have a kenwood. Code might well be 0000. It'll no doubt sell tomorrow anyway :)
  7. Interested in this........how much posted to sunny Glasgow? Or is this the posted price ;)
  8. I put 2 on it, one around the whole lot, including the plug, so it keeps it in place, then one across that to keep it in place, sort of a + shape........i may try the screw again at some point.........then again, probably not :lol:
  9. I zip tied mine too, just couldn't get that wee screw back in lol On a plus note, starting is much better, feels like more power is now getting to the starter
  10. Ignition switch, mine failed last week, there is a bypass you can try, which would rule it in or out.

  11. Purple Tom has fitted this before, and is planning to do so again. Might be worth dropping him a PM?
  12. The interior looks rotten........you should swap me for my grey leather :lol: Seriously though, looks great 8)
  13. Just phoned a couple of parts depts(vw) and I have found one........£30.84! Asked for a better price and he said he'll see what he can do lol, won't find out until sat morning. Good call on the new key, might just do that :)
  14. Thanks mate, thought I'd seen it somewhere, but would never have found it. And it started with the wiring fix..........so new ignition switch time. Did I read somewhere that a Polo switch is the one to use? ---------- Post added at 8:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 8:19 AM ---------- Oops, the answer is in the wiki, part no as well :)
  15. Hi all, My car has decided to not start! It's done it a few times recently, but has always started after a few attempts. Even as I write this I know that's the classic symptoms if a failed ignition switch. But I want to get it going tonight. I have bypassed other ignitions before, but its been a while,and was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to PM me hotwireing instructions (pretty please) Cheers Martin Either that or it's trial and error :lol:
  16. Welcome along mate :)
  17. Good to see you back........they always come back :lol:
  18. Welcome along mate.......once you get that one fixed you can move onto the VR6 :afro:
  19. Cheers mate :) ---------- Post added at 3:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 3:59 PM ---------- Cheers mate :)
  20. Condition of headlights? I'll take them if they are intact?
