    Tach, glow plug light, oil pressure light (on) and cruise suddenly quit working

    I think I found my problem; the instrument cluster. I plugged in what's left of my old cluster, and the tach worked. re connected my new oil pressure sensor and the oil light started flashing; my old cluster didn't have a glow plug light so I can't verify that. Found a used European cluster from...

    Tach, glow plug light, oil pressure light (on) and cruise suddenly quit working

    Interesting....that makes sense about the oil pressure sensor; when that light came on is when I noticed all the other symptoms. IIRC, with a new switch, the light was still on, so I'll check the wiring. During the output tests with vcds, the tach made a full sweep and the glow plug lit up. My...

    Tach, glow plug light, oil pressure light (on) and cruise suddenly quit working

    I've got a bhw 6mtq in my Allroad; Suddenly, the tach and glow plug light don't work, the oil pressure light came on, and cruise won't work. My instrument cluster doesn't appear to be communicating with any other modules, according to vcds. When I run output tests on the i/cluster, the glow plug...

    Looking for advice before purchasing a 2010 toureg tdi

    I'm considering a 2010 toureg tdi, 170,xxx miles for 7k. I don't know much about the v6 tdi's; am very familiar with 4cylinder ALH's and BHW's. Does the v6 use timing belt or a timing chain? Recommended service life for either? I assume it is much more difficult to work on compared to an ALH...

    Will a bhw still run when the lift pump is not working?

    This might seem like a dumb question, but if my lift pump quits working, will the car still run? The reason I ask such a dumb question is I've had several gm 6.5 diesels, with known lift pump troubles, but the truck ran fine without it, albeit hard on the injection pump. You wouldn't know it's...
