    No start issue

    Diesel fuel is good up to 12 months. That’s not the problem at hand. Pump is primed, never sucked air. I’m not an idiot just having trouble. Thanks though.

    No start issue

    Okay so I’m trying this again. After almost a year of it sitting I’m able to try to get it running again. I have a ‘01 new beetle with the 1.9 ALH. Randomly shut off while driving to work one morning on the interstate. I’ve tried everything. A shop said pump went out, so I replaced the pump with...

    Still stumped

    Well I’m not 100% sure but I think I’m only getting fuel in injectors 2 and 4. So my assumption was that the fuel shut off solenoid is bad? The fuel filter was or appeared to be empty. So I filled it and still nothing.

    Still stumped

    I have tried everything I can think of. Car still won’t start. Died on me while driving to work @ 78 MPH. Checked timing, appears to be correct. All fuses are good, 109 relay is working. Injectors are getting fuel. I need help figuring this out from all you tdi buts out there. I’ve come to a...

    Car died while driving

    So am I correct with my assumption? According to what I have seen, read and the pictures that I have seen on this forum about replacing the belt and doing the timing on these engines sounds about right. Question is will that fix my problem?

    Car died while driving

    OK, I finally was able to get around to doing it and checked the timing. It appears that the injection pump is off 2 teeth on the timing belt.

    200,000 mile club... roll call!

    Absolutely! I lowered mine on coilovers and she has a nice set of tires. She takes turns and curves at a high speed like you wouldn’t believe. And rides smooth. I love the car but she is being onry rn

    200,000 mile club... roll call!

    Same mine has 236,000 miles, 2001 beetle 1.9 ALH. Drive it 67 miles each way to work and back. Still ironing out some wrinkles in my sleeves though. I love the car, like driving around a little go cart/ race car.
