heya all
im a vw nut for many many year and although im a air cooled fella i have owned a number of water pumpers over the years, as long as it's a vw im pretty much happy....
My reason for wondering on over here is my daughters first car, a 2000 polo 1.4. We brought it for her as she really wanted a vw and high on her list of must haves were A/C, remote c/l and other such mod-cons.
Its a great little car but its developed a issue that i am having problems tracking down.. The car starts and runs perfect for about 15 minutes then the dash goes off with all instruments cutting out then the car just cuts out.. if you leave it half hour(ish) it will start run perfect again for about 15 minutes then do the same thing. My mechanic has put his scan tool on the car and it says its a communication error but it doesn't say what not that he can work out any hows.....
Im quite proficient around cars and there workings but the electrical side is most definitely my weakest area, it has been suggested it mite be the power supply relay (30)?
im just trying to get as much information as possible before i start ordering stuff, getting vw parts where i live (C-Qld) is a nightmare and most are shipped up so i cant just trial and error..
thank you for any insight you mite be able to give me..
steff....
