It shouldn’t be difficult to source a good used dash, if you’re near Crewe I have one myself.

UK VR6s are OBD1, this precedes OBD2 which scanners are designed to be used on, hence there use is quite limited. are you distributer or coil pack? You need a plug lead removal tool to get the leads off the plugs, yanking on them will damage them. Some cars still have these clipped to the bonnet stay, otherwise it’s eBay I’m afraid. https://ebay.us/m/dJ1JU5

Check you have the correct plug leads to the coil pack Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Busy week. is £70 posted ok? I can’t see any on eBay below £100

Looks like the motors were riveted onto the door (can’t remember). Postage would have to be Saturday (unless I get an early finish one day). Both off a late storm I broke Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I seem to remember the motors mount at the front of the doors and curvature will be the same as the door glass. i kept mine as just in case 😜

I have both but never marked which side is which lol

You should have an emissions print out from the MOT fail?

EMISSIONS HELP CO high, co2 low hc high, o2 high - rich mixture with ignition misfire CO high, co2 low hc high, o2 low -faulty thermostat or coolant sensor CO low, co2 low hc low, o2 high - exhaust leak after cat CO low, co2 high, hc low, o2 high - injector misfire, cat ok CO high, co2 low, hc medium to low, o2 high - rich mixture CO high, co2 high, hc high, o2 high - injector misfire, cat not working, combination of rich mixture and vacuum leak CO low, co2 high, hc low, 02 low, good afr and cat operation- system normal . lambda typical range 0.97 to 1.03 [ ideal lambda 1 ] The emissions limits to be met are specified for both the fast and normal idle tests. At fast idle, CO must be at or less than 0.2%, HC at or less than 200 parts per million (ppm), and the lambda value(1) must be between 0.97 and 1.03. At normal idle, CO must be at or less than 0.3%

It’s £15 per year to view and post in all sections

It does sound like HGF, if I remember correctly the 8v suffers with cylinder 1 (cam belt end), remove the plugs and check the tops of the pistons for carbon, a clean piston would indicate an issue as it’s been steam cleaned by the coolant. hth

I think you've missed the odd word out there? I assume you had to push the meter probe further into a fuse holder? So basically you had a circuit that could read 12v with your multimeter but had connections so poor it was unable to carry the current needed for the pump to work?

Probably best via fb TBH

VW Motoring Mag, VW Audicar Mag (split and became VW Driver / Audi Driver mag), would have featured, if you can locate Neil Birkitt (here, ClubGTi) he may be able to help with mag road tests as he edited all those mags at one time or other

From memory it went to Brodie Britain Racing (BBR) who I think were can RS tuner and they shared a small advert in the VAG press?

I knew you'd be back lol I don't know why the early cars aren't as popular as the late TBH

I don’t know 16vs tbh. from cold it will run ignoring lambda until a set temp, I’d be looking for an air leak. maybe drop Crasher a pm? He knows 16v engines and there issues

Mate of mine just bought a mondeo st220 (he had one before, regrets selling it), flatbed dropped it off Saturday 1pm, rough idle, seller couldn’t sort it, owned the car for 10 years, had the plenum removed and new plugs PITA job on the rear bank on these. mate did due diligence, pushed a lead fully home and alls good- lead had pushed up the rubber cap.

Pull plug leads off one by one, if you find one makes little difference to the idle you’ve located the bad cylinder (do all 6 even if you’re lucky with the first one). plug lead Injector compression - cylinder or valve you wouldn’t be the first to transpose two plug leads

I’ve wondered if an E-UP battery pack would fit the floor pan? wont be quick but would be different?
