dizzy for 16v

Morning,

 

Need a dizzy (dont need cap or anything) for the 16v :D

 

One of the sensors have snapped off mine so is cable tied on to make it run!

 

Cheers

If you know someone with a VW trade account (TPS) these are exceptionally cheap for some reason.. had a new dizzy put on mine last year and cost price was something absurd like £30!

I have been shopping about - cheapest i can find was GSF and that was 50 odd squid, but they need the old one (mine has snapped) so there is a £40 charge! lol

Just rang TPS as £30 seems too good to be true!

 

They want £70 on an exchange basis, it was too good. :(

Weird... I'm sure it was silly cheap last year which is the main reason we decided to replace it! May have hoiked the prices back up.. or maybe it was just £70 and I'm being a bit forgetful!

I think it used to be £45 + VAT but remember all VW prices went up 2 days ago plus the VAT increase...

They had them on offer a while back, there was a flyer sent to account holders, not sure how much they were but it was a really good price.

Is distributor / hall sender not a 1 piece unit?

can be replaced but you have to push out a roll pin I think

TBH the hall senders aren't cheap and if the shaft/bearing on the dizzy is worn/suspect you might as well get a complete exchange dizzy

Hi mate, if you still need one i've got one you can have for £20 delivered.

20vt,

 

Is the dizzy a genuine one with no leaks, all working etc?

 

If 'yellowrado90' doesn't want the dizzy i may take it.

I snapped the hall sensor on mine last week, EURO CAR PARTS got me one for 59.00 - im a mechanic so trade to me was 39.00 though!! and thats a NON-EXCHANGE!! Expensive slip with the screwdriver though......

I think there are some new genuine hall senders on ebay for around £30.

the one euro car parts sent was a full dizzy with sensor, rotor arm and cap! ready to bolt in and plug the ht leads into!
