24V Renshaw 0 Posted March 28, 2006 Yes it will be connected to your running problems, it basically feeds back info on the emmisons to the ECU. Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted March 28, 2006 Oh sorry - I enlarged the pic and see the broken wire now, new plug needed really - should be able to get from VW You also need to find out why it broke - rear engine mount may be knackered.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted March 28, 2006 That definately won't help your car run properly! You may be able to remove the pin from the orinal connector and make a nice repair, otherwise you could ommit the original connection and use spade connectors.
