No wouldn't affect running at all... A dodgy battery could affect the startup... I'd at least phone VW up and ask them how much they'd charge per hour to look at your big-end and how much to pull it off for a more thorough look...
-
Ok, are you sure the glowplugs were changed or were you just told that?
-
Right, next thing I'd do in your position... Go to VW, explain the problems with it not starting up properly in the mornings and suggest that someone has a quick look at your big-end.. they may be able to see what the problem is just by getting under there and taking the cover off...
-
Probably - does the noise go when you turn it off?
-
Oh... forget that then as only turbo diesels need a flux capacitor...
-
Sorry TD - they should have one instock, usually about a fiver...
-
Easy to change and very cheap... Just go to VAG and ask for a Flux Capacitor for a mk3 TDi...
-
Just checking... If the glow plugs are ok then maybe try the capacitor...
-
Hmmm.... Depends what you got, Halfords do a pack of 2 red horns which work well as a direct replacement altho they plugs are different so you have to re-terminate.
-
Yip, and sitting at idle doesn't do the turbo anygood on a PD engine apparently...

How much to replace headgasket,chains & tensioners on vr
Supercharged replied to Heardy's topic in Engine Bay
I think Stealth charge £650 +vat for a drive in/out clutch and chains job... -
Are shorter ratio gears available for Golf VR6?
Supercharged replied to matth76's topic in Engine Bay
PhatVR6, Am I right in thinking that you can change this without dropping the box? If so, is it something you'd recommend (or think it's worthwhile) for VR owners to do..? -
Wales - you are letting the glow plug light go out before starting up I assume?
-
4 Bolts, then wiggle it about and pull... then unplug the indicators/fogs...
-
Parts like this should be on a 2 year warranty, but not sure about that if it's blowing a thermal fuse! The reason the fuse is blowing is that the motor is struggeling and drawing too much current and therefore heating it up...
-
I bet they're exactly the same - maybe the plug points the other way...
-
Multiple keys. Can i fix my door handles so i can have 1 key

Just go to VW... -
Still no pics - I think we should ban him!
-
That piece of metal is less than a fiver from VAG!
-
Yep, and you have to buy the intercooler pipes in a seperate kit to the coolant ones... Look good tho...
-
Here you go... The highlighted item is the top mount...
-
LOL - the Haywire fixed his earlier with a large self-tapping screw!
-
Sounds like you have a vac leak thats affecting the operation of the ISV...
-
Unplug em too!
-
What engine is it? If it's a 16V and those pipes are the ones i'm thinking of then they are your braided fuel injection lines...!!!
