1.8 GL ( ADZ ) Stuttering when warm

[lompeboks]

Let me interduce my 10.000 nok ( 1200 usd ) VW Golf MK3 1.8 GL (ADZ)
The car looks like **** for the moment, just bought it.



So far i have done this.
Oil filter and oil changed.
Airfilter
Coupefilter
Spark plugs
O2 sensor
Lamdasensor ( Sensor in the back of the manifold )
Distrubitor cap and rotor
Cleaned sensors


Faults .

-Engine runs good when the car i cold, but as it gets hot its starts to hesitate, and sometimes just cut ut, while im driving.
-Blower not blowing very well, unless i turn of the fans for 10min, then its great.. Untill i enter the highway for 5 minutes, then the heat in the coupe drops pretty fast.
-I dont have Vag-com, but i have a cheap OBD reader , and i have gotten a couple of error codes.
-I did clean the throttle body, and the car was hesetating alot less for a week or so. And then the problem came back after i decided to delete some error codes.

00282(Throttle position actuator-V60 )
00516( Closed throttle position switch-F60 )

So can you guys point me in the direction of a solution?

Thanks alot from Norway . Best regards Christian

Check the rubber base below the throttle body. If its cracked no good!

Sounds like you might have a few problems.

The thermostat could be stuck open if the temp drops when your driving.

If the poor running starts when the gauge gets past half way to the normal indication, I'd be considering the lambda probe. As this is ignored until the engine gets to temp.

If you have a digital voltmeter you can monitor the output of the probe, do this from cold and you will see the voltage begin to oscillate when it gets to temp, if it's working correctly. If the voltage doesn't move it's broken.

The throttle closed switch code could be the cable set too tight? That needs fixing as it will never idle properly if there's a problem with the switch.
