Hi,
I've been trying to fix my 2002 Tdi for over a year now.
Basically drives perfectly fine for about 10-20min and then dies. Try to crank, doesn't fire up. I wait for about 5 hours, starts right up. ( the Speedometer is still not working, even though I replaced it with a Speed sensor a while back).
I got a tip from a local mechanic who said it was the CRANK POSITION SENSOR. I ordered a new one, installed it in 5 min.
Drove the car 1 mile, and the Check engine light came on. First time I saw it come on. From my cheap OB2 Reader I get :
P0722 - appears to indicate speed sensor
P0671 - appears to indicate Glow plug #1
P0228 - Throttle position sensor or alternator/low voltage ?
Help....any ideas ??
Update: I erased the codes, drove it 1 mile. Parked it, Turned it off and now it wont start. Took about 6 cranks and then it started running. Turned it off, wouldn't start again. pulling my hair out. Ive replaced Relay 109, fuel sender, some hoses, fuel filter and few other things..nightmare. I need DIESEL NOW, since gas is up up! Help!!
