Replying to: dungeonx (Oct 28, 2009 6:54 am) 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.

Replying to: dungeonx (Oct 29, 2009 12:56 pm) I assime you checked all the fuses and fusable-links. It is the engine-computer that controls injection signals to the injectors. Let me say that another way... the engine-computer sends the "signals" to the injectors but the bulk of the POWER comes from another source. Typically, +12 is CONSTANTLY fed to the injectors and the engine-computer momentarilly shorts the other side to GROUND to cause an injection-pulse. Check for +12 on all injectors. |

Replying to: edsue (Oct 31, 2009 2:55 pm) Some of the engine-temp sensors up till about 2001 were found to fail prematurly. The replacement component is different design (read "more reliable") On the 2.0L engine, this sensor is trivial to replace. I replaced one on my daughters car in the dark while she held the flashlight. (Dont forget to also replace the O-ring at same time.) Cost for temp-ensor and O-ring was about $15 when I had to get one. |

| well today in my auto course we hooked it up to a gesisus scantool and it asked us to verify a code that i did not have so i guess there is no existing problem with the computer but i do have to take it to vw, and pay 110$ to get them to hook their HUB to it and print me off the faults. | |
