G60 Engine Cuts Out

[PhilSatch 0]

Wonder if anyone can help...

 

my G60 cuts out once it has warmed up, it then turns over but will not start. If I leave it to cool down for a bit it starts but then a few minutes later it'll cut out again.

 

I've tested for a spark when the engine is turned over after cutting out and there isn't one.

 

I've been advised its probably the ECU or dizzy....

 

Has anyone had this problem with a G60 before? any ideas?

 

Thanks very much.

Welcome to the forum - could also be the coil or Hall sender (part of dizzy)

I had the same problem once, like Supercharged said, it was the hall sender, they're pretty notorious for it i think.

Thanks for that, i'll start with the distributor then.

Replaced the ECU relay and hasn't cut out since, £10.89 from VW, result!

Nice one Phil - you may have found the new one is a different colour / number and made in germany (if the old one wasn't then I reckon you have found the problem as they are known to fail...

 

covincharger, hall sender is part of the dizzy which is about £100 exchange from VW.

Thats right the old one was black, and the new one is kind of orange and made in Germany, cheers for your advice!

PhilSatch, no worries - I'd also do the Fuel pump relay too (just as critical)
