Hi guys
Been running my J reg 8v GTI sweetly fro a couple of years with no problems but its poorly now.
Its been reluctant to start lately. When you go to turn the ignition it has momentarily died before turning over. If I've needed to try again it starts straight away.
However on Friday the Mrs could not get it to start for quite a while and now I've got warning lights for Temp and Oil. I can't see any leaks. The lights stayed on even after the key was taken from the ignition. So I've disconnected the battery so it dosen't get drained. The MFA is showing the number 86 ( I have no idea if this is relevant) rather than normal reading.
Rev Counter has stopped working also
Any advice greatfully recieved.
