Sounds like a battery issue to me. Take it to autozone or similar and have them test. It's free and it will rule out something else causing the voltage drop. When batteries start to die they can't put out enough power and you'll see a voltage drop like that.
I've got a fault with mine too. 19559 - MOtor for Intake Manifold Flap (V157): Malfunction P3103 - 000 - - - Intermittent.
How was the R&R? Any specialty tools or anything else have to come off for dis-assembly?
Thanks for the info. I'm waiting on a Palm Pre and I'm going to want to play for it for a few days before deciding if I think I want to add this in or not and I'm looking into my options.
Can you explain why you had to get a new map light and how this thing wires in? I take it you remove the stereo plug the wiring harness adapter so no wiring is changed in the car. Where do the mic and controller cables come out of the dash at? Does $150 include shipping?
I just want to thank whitedog, kermatdi, Gretta_the_Jetta, and everyone else here at TDIclub for how great this forum is. I have been very busy over the last 18 months and haven't been around to keep up with things until Sunday night when I was forced to. My 2005 Jetta TDI-PD died after driving...
Well I'm still looking to get this problem fixed as well. Maybe I haven't thought this through enough, but shouldn't a mufflerectomy help? Would this reduce backpressure enough, or does the flow of the exhaust through the turbo make this insignificant?
Tongsli, you didnt finish your last thought on where to look.
I guess the lucky/unlucky question is all about perspective.
Lucky is wasn't worse - yes
lucky the guard rail was there - maybe
or maybe I was just unlucky and that's why I fell asleep.
I was best man in a wedding the week of the...
I called the bodyshop and he stated it is just a matter of adjusting the screw for the locking mechanism in the handle. I'll be more specific after I watch him do it.
Firstly I fell asleep at 4:00PM about a week and a half ago and barely grazed a guardrail. It was a very very light hit (didn't even feel impact, just heard it) but the scrape touched my front wheel, the front bumper the front fender, both doors, the C-pillar and the rear bumper. What a pain...
I've read and searched, but haven't found out yet. What do I need to do if I am arriving Saturday morning around the time of the tech sessions? Also, where are the tech sessions? I know I need my nametag to get in, just curious how I can get it. Sorry if I missed it somewhere.
After watching this attempted at ImpexFest I decided to go about it differently. I just waited till 40 miles after my low fuel light came on and then just dumped it in the tank. 40 miles later I did my full 40,000 service including changing the oil and the fuel filter, which I filled with...
I also had a great time. I got the brakes bled and enough maintenance stuff to take care of the car for the next 2 years for a great price. Last year's ImpexFest was my first TDI club event and I knew so little and felt very nervous about going to the event. This year I felt right at home and...
The bleeder is the easiest thing to use in the world. Think inverse of a Pella. All you do is fill the thing up with the fluid of your choice. Then suck out some old fluid from the reservoir and screw on the Motive where the cap usually goes (I have the attachment for the VW cap size). Then you...
If you can borrow the tools all you need is fluid. It sounds like enough people are doing it there will be tools to go around. You are also more than welcome to borrow my Motive Bleeder. I will bring some denatured alcohol to clean the thing out between flushes if people are worried about mixing...
