Hi all just got back from viewing a golf.
However when he was driving the car it felt juddery (not sure if its a word lol) and the petrol looked very very low however there was no petrol light on which i thought was strange?

17939
17840
17695
17645
17648
17646
17834
17841
17647

Cheer just read the manual which came with my code reader and a couple of the codes werent listed which is helpful lol, but the ones that were say Cylinder # Fuel Injector Circuit-Open Circuit. Its Cylinder #1,#2,#3 and that site says about fuel relays, and air pumps and also mentions the N75 valve which i said to the guy. Does this all sound expensive?

my money is on a faulty injector wiring loom/harness i had similar prob mine was after an hrs drive(motorway) i got juddering then limp mode .when i used one of the cheap readers of fleebay i got several coded one being an open circuit on cylinder2 i replaced maf, then serviced it etc but one day a lad off this site put money on it being the wiring loom so took to vw ignored their efforts to do vag com scan and got them to replace cylinder2 loom ,130 quid all in and bam bk to normal
not sure about n75 being a by product of the loom failing code but i've not had that prob since the repair lol lots of others but no juddering.
good luck

N75 only about £45 and really easy to change.

If its got that much wrong with it and didn't wasn't running well I'd go look elsewhere. Find one that has had the work done.

ye goning to look else where so glad i got that code reader comes in handy :smiley:
seen a couple more, one private and one garage. Leaning towards the garage one even though it has more miles hopefully it has been looked after better as ive seen a couple of private ones and they've been .... :sad:
Both have had cambelt done so hopefully come the weekend should have a new 1.8T :laugh:
