  1. This car has been a headache since I have got it in December. Viewed it and the only thing wrong was a seized caliper. Fine, rebuilt that caliper on a Saturday. Drove it around and realized it was only revving to 5k rpm and and sometimes would stop pulling. Read the codes, crank speed sensor and cam sensor. Replaced both of those and did the timing belt as it was due. Car started up on the button and 3 seconds later immediately started to piss out oil. Fucking rear main seal housing had a crack in it. Changed that and as we was down there did the clutch, starter and all. Put it back together, wouldn't start even tho everything is perfectly aligned. Read codes again, immobiliser issue, sent it off to get repaired (water damages) got it back and fitted it and nothing. Only code now is camshaft sensor speed/range however as far as I'm aware it shouldn't stop it starting. We have strong spark, great compression, great fuel pressure. Any ideas?
  2. Hi folks, Just joined the forum and hoping you can help me with a wee problem. I have a 2004 1.4 automatic which has a starting issue when the engine is hot. It starts fine when cold but when warm it can take up to 6 attempts to start. I have replaced the coolant temperature sensor and have also had it scanned for fault codes but nothing is showing up. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it could be?
  3. Hi All I hope someone may shed some light into what is going on with my 2014 1.2tsi 16v CJZC Polo. 41k miles. 1) When I start the engine from cold - it behaves fine,.... i.e. slightly higher idle for a brief moment, then quickly settles perfectly on +/- 650rpm 2) When I start the engine warm-hot, ....after some journey, ...it also behaves absolutely fine. (same as above) 3) BUT when I start the engine +/- 4hrs after stopping, ...it will start with a higher rpm (approx. 1200) then within the next minute or so, will slowly go down and eventually settle on 650rpm. During this settle-down time the car tends to shake ... and IF I drive it during this time, it sounds throaty. I believe it must be temp related, because on a hot sunny day, this "goldilocks" hesitation zone is longer, i.e. around 6hrs after stopping,.... and on a very cold day it is shorter, i.e. around 2.5hrs. Any other time,... earlier or later than this "goldilock" zone causes NO probs. and the car idles perfectly immediately. Recently my O2 sensor2 died (after cat) so I replaced with the approved Bosch (long cable) and reset the fault codes via (limited) diagnostics - and for some time this hesitation problem seemed to be slightly less, .....but now it's the same as before. I fitted the new after-cat O2 sensor around 2 months ago. I would like to ask what might be causing this limited starting hesitation... anyone else have or know about this prob ... and what to do ? Maybe? pre-cat O2 sensor, coolant temp sensor, temp sensor for fuel pressure,.. or something else be the root cause ? I bought the car new ( in 2014 ) and this issue has only shown itself since needing to start/stop after around 4hrs !! (on a normal day) Thx in advance for any tips.
