Running Rough

[ScienceVR6]

Mine has been randomly idleing low, and stalling, then when i restart, and rev the tits off it, its fine.

Ye that was same with mine. Only happened once in a while though

sounds like a hall/crank angle sensor to me... I.e 600+ to fix ...

Cheers for the advice guys, turns out it is the coil pack. VW quoted by mechanic $1050! got a second hand one from Matt so that's sorted. Got plugs from peps spares, 6 for $70! bargain, that's trade price but still they said they're normally $16.95 retail. Better than the $38 VW quoted my mechanic!
Hopefully I can get her back on the road on Monday!

I know there is a shipping cost and we are a long way from other places...but the fun part is that if you import the parts from GAP in New York plugs are less than US$7 each yet VW Australia can justify $38 each! anyway...

Simple... few people can afford to have their car off the road for the time it takes to do the research and postage
