hey guys my name is billy.. I'm new to the whole vdub scene.
im in the process of doing a 2.0 tfsi swap (dsg) on my mk5 jetta (previously 2.0 fsi)
i bought a wrecked turbo jetta with the engine running perfectly and swapped "everything" over.
thats wiring, suspension, engine and gearbox and all the other stuff from the tfsi wreck
reason I'm doing it was because there was oil getting into my cooling system which resulted in the car overheating.
now I'm at the point where everything is in, immobiliser is working fine, fuel pump is working, the car is turning over
but just won't start. i smell fuel after attempting to start it.. I'm stuck. i have a little super-vag computer and its throwing a couple of error codes. speed sensors ect. the only one that alarms me a bit is the cylinder 3 knock sensor. could that be
the reason its not starting ? i just figured if it worked in the car before why is it not working now ?
my cluster tells me "service now" I'm really stuck at this point. This is my first vw I've ever owned first one I've worked on
I've worked on many jap cars and only owned only jap cars before. i recently bought an e30 convertible (big plans) and this as my jetta as my daily
sorry for my introduction being off topic but this is how i ended up on this site
would really appreciate it if someone would shed some light on what i should be looking for ?
nice to meet you all
if anyone needs any jetta parts just let me know
thanks billy
