HELP !!! 16v cutting out
« on: 23 August 2009, 15:44 »
 :angry:Help required with this one please ! 1996 golf 16v gti runs for 20/25 mins then cuts out. If i try to start it right away it will fire then cut cut out again. Leave it a few mins and it will run again for a few mins then cut out again. It's had a new distributor and crank sensor fitted and all sensors have checked out ok (1 temp sensor replaced). I have a diagnostic tool which is showing up fault codes
00513-G28 engine speed sensor
00740-G145 cyl 1 recognition sensor
00525-G39 oxygen sensor
00523-G42 intake ait temp sensor
I cleared all fault codes and the only ones coming up now are the first two above. The first one 00513-g28 will i think show a fault if the car is NOT running so i think i can ignore that one but unsure about the second fault, is this the hall sensor ?
Any help or pointers towards fixing this fault once and for all would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, ALL the relays have been changed as well but still it cuts out.

Hi, welcome to the site  :smiley: The usual first step is to clean out the throttle body and see if that helps.
