westie Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 Hi guys, Hopefully someone may be able to help. My Mk1 TDI (110bhp) wont start. Initially this happened when the car was warm, but now it wont start at all. The engine seems to spin perfectly, but wont fire. I have also noticed that after trying to start it, the ignition beeps at me 3 or 4 times!! Is the EMC trying to give me a clue what's wrong?? Any help would be great. Thanks again guys. Steve Quote
big_kev Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 Possibly a faulty temperature sensor......could be a dodgy battery though Quote
westie Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Posted July 28, 2008 Sorry...I meant the charge/ tempreture senor?....I have disconnected it, but still didnt start...just kept spinning Quote
seatkid Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) 5 beeps - crankshaft position sensor fault IIRC Edited July 28, 2008 by seatkid Quote
