andyb67ajb 0 Posted April 11, 2011 Hi guys, I own a 1995 Corrado 2.0 8v which starts from cold but when the engine warms up stutters(the rev counter jumps all over the place) stalls then wont start up again, the dizzy cap, rotor arm, coil, plugs and ht leads have all been changed, could it be a sensor or loose wire ?, the engine does stutter from time to time mainly in warm conditions, is there any checks i can do ?, cheers Andy .

Purple Tom 0 Posted April 11, 2011 Sounds like it could possibly be the crank sensor, my 8V gave exactly the same symptoms when it had trouble with the same sensor, although mine was due to the wire chafing rather than the sensor itself being at fault. It cost me £140 new from VW - what engine code is yours, ADY or 2E (have a look on the logbook if you're not sure...the first few letters of the engine number).

andyb67ajb 0 Posted April 11, 2011 Its ADY mate, Would VAGCOM show up the fault or not ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted April 11, 2011 It might do yeah, would be a good idea to plug it in and see what comes up. If you do need a crank sensor then I actually have one that I've just removed from my 8V (I'm doing a TDi conversion so no need for it!). Hope Vagcom tells you what you need to know!
