Aus 0 Posted January 11, 2006 I've had a couple of posts on this problem and thanks for the help/replies to date! Got a '94 VR6, 70K miles. Running well except when coasting to a stop it often dies and when starting from cold, it always starts but idle hunts until warm, and if driven before warm, engine often dies. I gather this is not an uncommon problem, but so far have: - replaced blue temp sensor - replaced ecu relay (this seemed to help, but after a few drives, returned to poor form) - replaced coul pack and leads - replaced battery (this seemed to help, but after a few drives, returned to poor form) - cleanedx ISV (this seemed to help, but after a few drives, returned to poor form) Could it be the fuel pump? Is there an easy check to do on this? It's really bugging me now - any help will be much appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 11, 2006 Have you had it on VAGCOM? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aus 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Nope - my local garage insisted they'd do this, charged a fortune and then eventually admitted they don't have one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 11, 2006 What! - well I wouldn't spend any more money replacing bit until you've had the fault codes read... VW will often do this to diagnose a problem for free, then it's up to you if you get the work done there or not... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aus 0 Posted January 12, 2006 local VW dealership said £70 per hour, and assume min 3 hours for vag-com check!!! local independent vw specialist was happy to chat through, but said he felt the vag-com wouldn't help diagnose in this instance - suggested I left the car with him for a day. Either way, looks pricey and neither seemed confident (nor as knowledgeable as the forum!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
