Really common problem. Your "bonnet open switch" is not working. It's near the bonnet catch. Usually gets covered in dirt. This is how the system works: 1. The oil sensor is very short and sits under all the oil when the engine is off. It is only designed to measure the oil level when the engine is running. 2.

Just tried to start my Golf MkIV 1.6 16v and it's sounding like it's running on three cylinders. It's also smoking and is more difficult to start. Also the check engine light is flashing. Does the dreaded coil pack problem that is plaguing larger VAG engines affect this engine as well or is it likely something else? stoke-on-trent. TDI. 1.9 se tdi mk4. Jan 12, 2012. #1. hello. i recently purchased a mk4 golf 1.9 se tdi 90hp and i got it spares or repair. originally it did not turn over and that was the battery. now i have a major issue.. it makes a hell of a banging noise on start. i was told by a mechanic that it was somewhere in the top end of the VW Golf MK4 EGR Valve Problem. I have a problem with my VW GOLF 1.6 2002. Basically the engine was shaking and the engine management light was blonking;I took it to the mechanic and changed a pencil pack (one of those coil pack) and everthing worked back again. I drove it a bit and then the car was having problems,engine management light on The most common signs of bad mass air flow sensor (MAF) in VW Golf are loss of power or slow acceleration, engine hesitation or jerking during acceleration, erratic idling, misfires, poor exhaust emission values and sometimes black smoke comes out of the tailpipe. The mass air flow sensor is part of the engineโ€™s intake system and is located I think a gearbox oil change would make the shift even more smoother.I had a big problem and heaache trying to figure this problem out.So i thought id help some others out with the same problem.Apply the grease liberally as vw did not put an engine cover under the shift linkage so water probly washed the old grease off. Regards ive had this sound ever since i bought the car, people have said its what golfs make but im unsure about that, i don't no where the noise is coming from but
Top 10 problems. Buying guide โ€“ common issues, and what to look for if youโ€™re looking at getting one. 1 โ€“ Cooling system pipework. Earlier cars up to 2015 had poor-quality hose clamps fitted that can corrode and let go โ€“ with expensive, sometimes terminal, results.

xJay1337. First thing you'd want to do is slap on a multimeter onto the battery and measure the voltage. Should be around 14.4v charge. with the engine off the battery should be over 12v. Your symptons suggest a duff battery because you'd get an alternator light in the event of an alternator failure.

As a matter of fact, many hatchbacks of today still haven't cought up with the Golf IV qualitywise. My own Golf IV has the 1.6 liter petrol engine with 101 HP. I had the 90 HP TDI version before that, too (I sold it for 5000 Euros with 198.000 km on the odometer!). This current one is now 10 years old and has mostly been moved in and around
3. The most common way to test the 5 wire VW Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor is just to unplug it with the engine running. If the MAF is bad (either because it's not producing a signal or producing an erratic one), the car's idle will return to normal and the car will seem to run fine. But, if you're like me, you want a more solid test, something
You may need to unplug two coolant hoses to loosen the pipe away from the egr valve mounting rods. The juddering and revs at 1100pm now only occur when the car is idling cold. If warm, on idle the revs sit nicely at 700rpm, although if you accelerate it does rumble as you pass 1100rpm.
Car is VW Golf MK4 1998 1.6sr AKL engine, fitted with LPG. I'm looking for a solution for a problem that I've been trying to fix for the last couple of months. The problem I'm experiencing is this: the car starts really easily in the morning, goes immediately up to 1100-1200rpm (I think this is normal when the engine is cold), but after 5-6
Worn Engine. Worn engine is another culprit responsible for the blue smoke from exhaust issue. Each engine has pistons which move up and down a cylinder. Each piston has metal rings round its side like bracelets. The function of these rings is to help the piston to form a tight seal against the cylinder. 4PLtNs.
