Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • T4 Immobilizer code on OBD

    Hi guys, a couple weeks ago the T4 decided to not fire, so i got a mate around to plug the OBD in and voila (see attached)

    Wondering if anyone knows where to go from here? Easy fixes? He seems to think its a send away for reprogramming job.

    appreciate any insights.

    Cheers

      Clear the codes, and make sure the MAF is plugged back in.

      I assume it's a petrol? It's probably a dead coil, or the ECU relay has crapped out.

        Could be a problem with the key as there is a immobiliser built into the point where the key is plugged in , it reads a code from the key and it its not sending it wont start . Have you got a second spare key try that , the relay mentioned is a BCM relay and they DO fail , mine stopped the van almost mid intersection .
