Hi I've just joined this forum it seems great so far,
Unfortunately I'm starting off with a question for all you more experienced owners. I have a fault with my 2001 vw golf 1.8t turbo agu model.
Few weeks back my trusty steed did not start, borrowed friends diagnosis air maf sensor was shower a fault which is common I've read. replaced with brand new bosch unit. Car starts all fine and well now. A further fault code showed temperature sensor so I replaced.
The car had started to judder when warm, runs fine when cold. When warm under full load it judders badly miss fire like. Runs ok at little throttle. All coils seem to be working no misfire when ticking over sounds as it always has. when rev it heavily stationary fine also only when under load started and warm. I replaced all spark plugs made no difference my understanding with coils is when they go they go so I'm reluctant to change them at this stage.
so far I've replaced
air maf
temp sensor
fuel filter
spark plugs
What's next ignition amplifier? I feel the fault is temperature related incorrect fuel air mixture ? Please any suggestions I'm not that ecpierenced with cars Im a motorcycle racer only picked what I know from racing road bikes
Thanks
Callum
