muppetofdoom Posted August 11, 2007 Report Posted August 11, 2007 hi people, my wonderful 1.9tdi mk1 galaxy keeps cutting out at junctions when i stop, ie foot on clutch, ecu reported speed sensor faulty had that changed, but still cutting out, any ideas ?all help appreciated ! Quote
Stevoo Posted August 11, 2007 Report Posted August 11, 2007 Could be idle control valve!, normally the cold start vale keeps car idling when cold and switches off when car is warm. Quote
seatkid Posted August 11, 2007 Report Posted August 11, 2007 Diesels don't have idle control valves. Quote
marinabrid Posted August 11, 2007 Report Posted August 11, 2007 did they clear the fault code from the ecu after fitting the part Quote
muppetofdoom Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Posted August 11, 2007 i'm guessing they did clear the code as the flashing glowplug light has now gone out ? , also forgot to mention that the second time this happend on restarting the fuel gauge was reading low. after stopping and starting again under normal conditions it returned to correct reading ! dunno if this means anything ?, thanks for the suggestions so far , keep em coming please :blink: Quote

HAD AA OUT AND THEY HAVE SAID IT COULD BE THE ECU DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THESE ARE TO REPLACE. JUST LIKE YOU I AM WORRIED ABOUT IT Quote
big_kev Posted September 16, 2007 Report Posted September 16, 2007 Sounds like an air leak....although it could be electrical...relay 30 or even brake switch ? Won't be the ECU Quote
