Many failures SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Golf 1994  210000 miles
Good morning, buddies. After being stopped at a traffic light, I start driving again and the car seems to choke a little bit. It is not a huge failure and it recovers quickly, but it worries me anyway. Even more, when the car is stopped, it trembles noticeably and it seems it is about to stall. Even the fuel consumption is higher than it used to be. Injectors have been cleaned and the car tuned.

You should check the coil and oxygen and temperature sensors, as these have to do with the fueling system. Some of them must be failing and that is why your vehicle is injecting more fuel than needed.

Transmission failure SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Golf 2006  121500 miles
Hello, I have a Volkswagen Golf gti 2.0. I was driving when suddenly the transmission stopped working and the check engine light turned on. The error codes were 0784 and 0829. I turned off the car, erased the codes, turned it on again and was able to drive home normally. What is it happening?

Acceleration failure and shivers SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Golf 2008  92674 miles
Once driving my car, I accelerate it and it does not respond properly and does not go over 1000rpm. When trying to speed it up, it does nothing and suddenly stalls. It also shivers and, when scanning it, the following failures were indicated: p441, p1542, p1171, p1426, p0108. Could you please help me?

The errors you mentioned have to do with the throttle body. Particularly, the code p0441 means that one of the oxygen sensors is damaged, but the rest are failures in the throttle body. Both the Volkswagen Skoda and Audi operate with computarized throttle bodies, which have a position sensor, which is the principal failure in your vehicle. Hope it helps you.

Suddenly stalled SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Golf 1999  200000 miles
Yesterday night, I was returning home when suddenly, when driving over a speed hump, the car stalled. I checked it and discovered there was no spark sent from the coil to the distributor. Today, it was hard to start the engine but finally did. Can it be that the coil overheated? Or what else can it be?

Hello, it might be that the vehicle is overheating. May be when you drived over the speed hump, some connection from the ignition system was moved, so I recommend you to check that all the connections and wires are alright. As your car overheated, exceeding the normal temperature, the sensor reported this to the computer and blocks the starting. It is logical that there is no spark then because it will only be present when the engine temperature is the right one. In the other case, like yours, the vehicle protects itself from exceeded parameters. So, you should check the temperature sensor because it might be failing or with a poor contact. Check as well the crankshaft and camshaft sensors, and finally verify if your coil is worn or failing. If you need to replace it, I suggest buying a Bosch one. Hope I can help you with my comment and if your car gets better, comment it as well on the forum so that we keep providing solutions. Good luck!

DSG gearbox failure, car stalled and stuck in P with multiple electric

Volkswagen Golf 2005 hatchback, 230000 miles
I have a Golf 5 GTI with DSG transmission. Yesterday, when I stopped at a traffic light, the engine suddenly stalled. There was still power and the lights were working. I later noticed that the negative battery cable was slightly loose.
After that, when I tried to park, the gearbox started behaving abnormally. It was shifting freely between R, N, and D without proper engagement. Then it got completely stuck in P and cannot be moved anymore.
I have checked all the fuses and none of them are blown.
A diagnostic scan shows multiple errors including communication faults, implausible signals, and ignition interruption.
Could this be caused by the loose battery connection, or is it likely a mechatronic/DSG failure?

I drive a manual. I can honestly tell you that if my gear box was moving between neutral and gear including reverse. I would have a transmission problem. And would near a new gear box probably. Your automatic. If it was your battery. Your lights would have flickered. If your engine reves died at the lights. Id say check your fuel injectors. Look for blockages. Check mav sensor. Also air in the fuel line can cause that. Especially if it wont restart. Faulty turbo. Are you driving in limp mode without realising. ? sounds like your cars screwed buddy. Definatly a transmission issue or faulty gear box

Bosch Polocup ecu, car idles correctly, able to do adaption and drives well but when i check dtc's I often get 65535 Internal Control Module Memory Error so i bought another one and took it to the same guy who did original one and he loaded the same map. I installed the ecu i bought and when i started it, perfect, cold start revs slightly higher and drove it untill warm,idle slightly higher but ok. Next day drove car,all fine.

Car will turn off while driving

Volkswagen Golf 2016 Glow plug 90000 miles
Here’s an improved version of your text with better clarity, structure, and grammar while keeping the details intact: Volkswagen Golf 7 (2016) 2.0 TDI Issue – Need Help Hi everyone, I have a 2016 Golf 7, 2.0 TDI, which I bought from South Korea via Autowini. The car arrived in Albania on June 25, 2024. Initially, it had no issues, except for one time in traffic when the start-stop system was on—it turned off and had to be restarted manually. I didn’t think much of it at the time. Shortly after, I changed the oil, filters, and timing belt. I hadn’t driven many miles at that point. First Iss… Read complete

It takes forever to start in cold

Volkswagen Golf 2003 MK4 1.9 TDI 101 214000 miles
When I have to start it in cold, it takes 10 to 15 or 20 seconds to start it. Also lately the consumption is a little more than it used to be. I think it expels more gas from the exhaust (white/gray) than the usual and the rear windshield gets more dusty (from diesel gas i guess). And at low revolutions, without touching anything the revs are a little irregular. Can anyone help? It's usual? Have this happened to anyone? Thanks.

its completely normal to have white smoke comming from it. you need to let it warm up for 10-15 minutes before driving. also its best to use the glow plugs for more then one time. ideally like 3-4 times(depends on the temperature). The iregular revs are also normal, once it warms up it will be stable

Starts for 2 seconds ,,brake service error ,shutsdown ,

Volkswagen Golf 2015 Sportwagon SEL TDI 2.0 293000 miles
In the last few weeks, I replaced two wheel bearing hubs and a door lock actually hit a module, but all went well. It seems.
I wanted to try to clear any errors on the instrument cluster as well as a add blue will not stop in 500 miles era which previously I went 1000 miles over that 500 and all is well, I disconnected the battery pulled one fuse or relay at a time and reinstalled once complete. I tried to start the vehicle it fires up and runs for two seconds always the same just a couple seconds as the service break light came on and then dies. I know it’s not the engine. It’s a clean start and shut down. I’m thinking it may be electrical. Any help would be greatly appreciated before I take it to the garage.

Flashing glow plug light and check-engine light on a 2016 VW Golf 1.6

Volkswagen Golf 2016 Hatchback, 1.6 TDI diesel, 6-speed manual 143000 miles
I have a 2016 Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI diesel with a six-speed manual transmission. The car has covered approximately 230,000 km (143,000 miles). After driving for approximately 10–15 minutes, the glow plug warning light sometimes starts flashing. Occasionally, the check-engine light also comes on at the same time and remains steadily illuminated. If I switch off the engine and restart the car, the warning lights may temporarily disappear, but the problem can return later. On other journeys, I can drive without either warning light coming on. The fault therefore appears to be intermittent. E… Read complete

Starting problem

Volkswagen Golf 1996  185000 miles
My problem started three months ago when the engine started stalling suddenly, I was able to start it again but it would stall once more after a while. At that moment, I was told it was the coil that was having problems, so I bought the replacements which were not cheap at all, they were installed and the car started working perfectly. Perfectly until two days ago when, I parked the vehicle on the street to do some shopping and, when I returned, I started my car and it did but, when I was about to leave, it stalled and did not want to start again any more. I had to tow it home and I definitely thought it was the coil once again, so I bought it, installed it, but it won't start at all. What should I do? What might be another possible cause?
