Hello All,
I am having a bit of a time with hard starting when cold in my 2000 Golf, and in my Dad’s 01 Beetle.
I am sure there is something that I am missing, but here are the details...changed the injector nozzles in my 2000 a Golf to some PP764’s. Had them gone through by DBW, and followed the instructions for everything to get them back in and IQ changed to about 3.8.
On the Beetle, it got my old nozzles which were some older P520’s. These also got sent to DBW for cleaning and service. Got those back and set the IQ to 5. Both of these IQ changes were via the Hammer Mod.
The trouble I am seeing is when it is 60-70 degrees, they both have to crank like it 35-40 degrees. Prior to injector changing, they both would pop off with a couple of revolutions when the key was turned.
When they are warmed up, they pop off with a quick turn of the key, much like they used to when they were cold at warmer temps.
I don’t see anything leaking on either one, but am stumped at this point. Can anyone see something I missed?
Thanks for any help!
