hartscape Posted March 22, 2010 Author Report Posted March 22, 2010 the vac pipes are easy to spot their black cotton covered runner, .what hp is car 90 or 110hi thanks for quick reply its a 90 i know its early but i been under the bonnet and seen quite a lot of pipes with black cotton on so i might as well check every one of them.i take it they must all be related as there are a few here and there on manifold and plastic air sections?i have downloaded the workshopmanualbut it really doesn,t tell you anywhere near as much as on this forum.i,llgive it a go today and see how i get on.

marinabrid Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 as a former 90hp r reg i been through all this. you need to get a vag com lead from ebay and download the software from ross tech free of charge.you will then see if you have a sensor issue. there is a vac pipe that goes down to the turbo unit form a small valve on the bulkhead.its a long one so can get damaged.as ours did. you can spend hours and hours and come up with nothing, so get you a vag com it usually saves you the hours of fiddling and hair pulling. i think i have a system diagram of the 9o hp only vac pipe layout so if you want one let me know . www.themarina-bridlington.com yes i know its my website but we have to sell ourselves you know.
