Socrates75 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Vw number 034 133 455B I've managed to source a 94 ISV, but my VR6 is a 95... The number above is the 94 version... is it the same? Thank you :afro: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Correct part for all VR6 years including 1995 model. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Socrates75 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Thank you very much. :mrgreen: Anyone live in a 50 mile radius of teesside that could either... a) stick it in for a small fee b) show me how to do it! I'd obviously travel to them. The reason being I've been greeted by a wall of silence with my local garages, one of which I feel has bent me over for around £600 over this intermittant cut out prob.

Trig 0 Posted February 16, 2006 It is very easy to do mate. You have to take off the plastic facia cover thing then simply undo the hoses & unplug it then fit the new one. 10 minute job max. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Socrates75 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Where abouts is it situated? Haven't a clue! :) Hopefully this will be the end of erratic idle and stalling! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted February 17, 2006 At the back of the engine there is a black (I think) plastic bit that kind of half covers the throttle body and the ISV. You have to take this off, or at least half remove it, can't remember how it's secured but it's obvious. Then you will see the ISV (you'll know what it looks like because you'll have another one!) and it's just a case of replacement - 3 hoses (I think) & one plug. :) HTH Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Socrates75 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Did you change yours because of erratic idle and stall? Did prob go? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Blassberg 0 Posted February 17, 2006 You need to remove at least the back part of the ignition lead plastic guides by undoing a few multi-point socket head screws and disconnecting the back 3 plug leads - if you don't have the proper plug lead tool, don't just tug them off the plugs because you may damage them, disconnect at the coil pack and thread them out that way. The original hose clips are single-use crimped type, so you will have to gently prise these off and replace them with jubilee clips (don't overtighten)or genuine replacements from VAG.

Trig 0 Posted February 17, 2006 You don't have to disconnect the leads, just taking the leads out of the guides and removing part of the plastic gives you plenty of room. Socrates75, I just took mine out for cleaning because I had nothing better to do! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
