Mk3 Gti Crank sensor?
« on: 30 September 2008, 23:25 »
Hi, I am having problems with my 95 Gti (ADY) bogging down under acceleration and hunting/misfiring slightly when idling. I had it on diagnostics and it had a Crank sensor fault.

After replacing the crank sensor the car ran and pulled fine for 50 miles and has now started bogging down and running badly again.

Has anyone every experienced any similar problem or knows of anything that could be causing the sensor to break?

I didn't clear the codes after fitting the sensor, could this have anything to do with it?

Please help its doing my nut in!!!   :cry:
