have you had your cam belt done lately??
-
yes, a few days ago. Funny the problem happened after the timing belt change?
-
Go back to the guy you had it done from see what he says...
I been having similar problems, light keeps coming and going, finally got of my a$$ found out where the cam sensor is!! gave it a quick clean cause i heard if its dirty could throw up a fault... just see what happens now.

Thanks I will try it, I have been told that the cam sensor from the delaer is very expensive.
-
£80 from what ive heard!!.. why i thought of giving it a clean first :wink:
-
PS Let me know how it goes!! i'd be intersted if you find out something different!

Hi mate.
I did change the sensor but the light came on again.
I took the car to my mates garage, he refitted the timing belt, the prat who had changed the timing belt before was one or two teeth out.
He realigned everything.............perfect no light. Car even runs better and is smoother.

My mate told me that when changing the timing belts on VW's special locking tools should be used to lock all the cams in place be4 taking off the belt. The prat must not have used these tools............anyway he fefunded me my money after a lot of harsh words............
