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,

  • Fuel pick up repair on T4 TDI ?

    I have been chasing intermittant hard cold start problems for a while untill they became constant problems... I tried all the usual suspects; Cranking voltage OK, glow plug continuity, voltage to glow plugs, anti shudder valve open. Along the way I found the coolant temp sensor open circuit. But still really hard to start. After eventually getting it running I see the clear fuel delivery line is a constant stream of bubbles - GREAT , I found a problem. The cause is a bit odd though. The sender & pick unit in the fuel tank has a split in the plastic that allows air and fuel to be ingested. I guess this is why it has been intermitant - only when the tank was low (although I am guessing)
    Has anyone repaired one of these? I can find no mention on here or TDIclub.
    Havin fun,
