Mk3highline 10 Posted December 17, 2014 Right well done a Google search and come up with images indicating the that the late mk3 obd2 Cam trigger wheel is that of the later style quick start type Stupid me sold my 12v so can't double check Is there anyone here with a late obd2 engine in bits to confirm? Also I'm doubtful about it as it would cause problems for those doing the obd2 conversions on there obd1 cars I have had it confirmed in the states but need to know for certain for our uk cars Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3highline 10 Posted December 17, 2014 well the later style was used in the 12v http://www.ecstuning.com/Volkswagen-Golf_III--VR6_12v/Engine/Mechanical/ES281756/ But might of only been used in the states Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3highline 10 Posted December 17, 2014 Rang vw and they said it was the old style single magnet type Well I have been to the guy who bought my engine and I can also confirm the ecu need the single point for cam position Ffs front end off Can the cam sprocket side cover come off without taking off the rocker cover?

Mk3highline 10 Posted December 17, 2014 Need this http://www.worldimpex.com/parts/genuine-part-hall-sender-rotor_144795.html Or an ecu from the states that will get mapped Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted December 17, 2014 probably easiest to take the rocker cover off anyway, that way everything is easily accessible. Shouldn't take more than an hour to get the manifold and other bits off though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3highline 10 Posted December 18, 2014 It's just the thought of having to take off the front end again Just filled it up with g12++ Guess will have to as got time off after Christmas Pile of sheet fooking cars Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted December 18, 2014 i didn't take the front end of mine - the manifold bolts are easiest with an allen key (plus some cloth to protect the slam panel paint) and the rest is pretty straightforward. You don't need to drain the coolant, if i've understood your comment correctly. The hardest part is actually undoing the sprocket bolt! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted December 18, 2014 Yep, only the American OBD2.5 12Vs used that....and a plastic intake like the 24V's. Yep front end off to get the manifold bolts out, then rocker off, then side cover off. It's an arse of an engine I'm afraid. As I said in the other threads, you will need to modify the exhaust cam on your AUE to take that 12V cam trigger wheel, and then modify the side cover to take the sensor. It's potentially a lot of work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
