Replying to: bpeebles (Oct 23, 2009 2:50 pm) I agree. This is some kind of bogus connector, corroded pins, bad grounds, damaged harness, etc.

Replying to: bpeebles (Oct 22, 2009 5:25 pm) ok i pulled the (MAF) sensor off the intake tube and all it did was run worse so that is not it i am leaning towards it being a sensor somewhere on the motor, but at this point i dont know what is wrong. without the computer it is like shooting an arrow at night.

Replying to: piglets2 (Oct 26, 2009 2:35 pm) You said ==> "i pulled the (MAF) sensor off the intake tube "   I hope you mean that you pulled the ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR from the MAF.... and did not remove the MAF itself from the intake-plenum.   I know what you mean about shooting in the dark when you do not have a computer. That is why I simply hook up my laptop to my VW and run diagnostics with my VagCom WIth 3 VWs in the family, it paid for itself within a year by saving $50 each time a dealership runs diagnostics (regardless if they actually FIX anything or not)

Replying to: nitekim (Oct 23, 2009 12:40 am) The codes you are showing indicate a possible bad throttle position sensor (TPS). Replies to this message: bpeebles (Oct 27, 2009 2:19 pm)

Replying to: thess02 (Oct 26, 2009 5:44 pm) Before replacing TPS, try re-synchronizing the throttle pedal to the throttlebody. Dont forget that many VWs use "fly-by-wire" throttle body. There is no traditional throttle-cable. Instead, there is a poteometer on the throttle-pedal which sends electronic signal to the throttle-body.   As I recall, the procedure involves pushing throttle to floor then turning ignition-switch without starting engine. .... there is step-by-step procedure to do that on the internet.

Replying to: dungeonx (Oct 28, 2009 6:54 am) Try changing the ignition coil. After market one may not last as long as one from VW. Though price for after market one is about half of one from VW. If you buy two after market ones and keep the second one in the trunk you should never be caught with a dead car out in the middle of nowhere, Or at the departure lane at the airport. That is where hers failed. Airport police were not too happy with that. Even thought she was picking up her brother as a favor since he locked his keys in his car as a TSA employee.   Went through this with my daughters 98 Jetta. Even had Car-X say it was a fuel pump for $680.00 to repair. Import mechanic changed the coil out for $200 after it sat at the house for awhile I tried to change out the fuel pump. Fuel pump was good.
