Title: ABF runs out of revs
Post by: james14100 on 27 July 2011, 14:34

Hi,

My Mk3 ABF runs great but ever since I've had it it seems to run out of revs at about 5500rpm, it just doesn't seem to want to clock round any further. Any ideas?

Cheers

James

Get your Timing checked, sounds like the ECU has gone into safe mode. That usually happens when the belt slips a tooth.
