Yeah i did a fuel pressure test with it running and with it not running and i got 39 PSI. Which what i read was in operating parameters. I pulled the vacuum lines off the pressure regulaters and they are functioning. As soon as the engine cools off or sets for half an hour it runs and feels...
I have a 1998 mk8 and on a hot day when i take off or accelerate my engine well rev to about 4 grand and then start cutting back and the more i push the gas the worse it gets. It acts as if the traction control has engaged but it hasnt. Also when its in neutral or park the engine wont rev up...
Hey guys i know this may sound dumb but does anyone know to change the light bulb behind the keypad on the drivers side door. I went out to my car this morning and when i hit the buttons they keypad didnt light up as bright only a piece of it lit up.. Thank you in advance!
Hey guys i was curious if you know what could be wrong with my car. When i turn the climate control on and its cold enough for the heater to kick in all i get is cold air. NOt really AC air but just chilly air. I've tried to manually turn the heater on and it does the same thing. I cant get...
Yeah, i really hope its not the boots. Are the boots expensive? I have just changed the plugs about 2 weeks ago and the problem just now appeared. I'll run my code checker tonight!
So to replace them would require me taking off the valve covers? I'm not used to coil on plug ignition haha. If i were to do this (which i will soon after you mentioned the mush thing) is there any things i should watch out for in the process? thank you all for your help
Actually there were 2 or 3 plugs that had collected a lot of oil on them and dirt. I had to be really careful to get it clean before i pulled the plug out of the engine so the dirty wouldnt fall down in it. How does the o-ring work? Or i guess where is it? Now taht you say it that could very...
Yes see i replaced the plugs about 2 weeks ago. It didnt do it before that and i'msure they are on tightly. The boots that is. Also i replaced the fuel filter and its connected correctly. I'm thinking their maybe moisture in the plug boots but who knows? It does it just when it idles. If i...
I have a question for you guys. When i start my 98 mark viii up after its been sitting for a while i get a miss. It last aproximately for 3 mins at the high idle. If i give it some gas it will come out of the miss. Its a pretty strong one it will shake the whole car. Any ideas? Thanks in...
I'm happy you found your problem! It went on for a while i've been reading the post on here! Nothing more satisfying then fixing a problem! Good luck in the future!
Yeah, i think thats what the big box is under the mirror. I jiggled it and it decided to work for a second... so i'm hoping maybe its some sort of short. Does anyone know if they make that unit module thing any more? I'm trying to get teh car back to where all the functions work on it. The...
Hello, i have a 1989 mark vii and yes i have the surging too. I replaced the EGR but the old one looked brand new and it didnt change a thing. I havent heard about the IAC i should look into that.
The PCV... I looked and looked and i finally found it Its right in the very back of the...
Ok guys i have one more for you guys!! The power seats on my viii seem to jam up when they get near their front stopping points. I took the passenger seat out and re greased it and checked the rails and everything. It seemed to look ok but the middle motor was extremly hot. I'm thinking...
Thank yoU! My goal is to get to the TRUE NORTH one... but i follow the exact instructions in the manual and it just will not do it. It'll say "Compass Zone error" so i'm not sure if its just messed up or what. But thank you for your help!
Thank you! Yeah, i've tried the compass + reset thing. It gets me to the compass menu and ask me to set the region zone number. Then if i push anotehr button i believe its reset again it'll ask me to circle the car.... well i'll do that and it'll work for maybe 3 seconds and go back to the...
Hey, i dont post on here all to much. Actually have only done it twice i just enjoy reading what you all have to say!! I've learned a lot of stuff about my car from just reading. I've searched the post about my compass and have found a few things on it. I have a problem.. when i'm going...
