    2001 NB Runs for 1 second then stops..

    Been a while since I've posted.. My '01 NB TDi now has 252,000 miles on it. Extremely trouble free miles. (Except the Guage cluster (Tach/Speedo/Fuel) quit working about 5 years ago, and after a few half-hearted attempts at fixing it, gave up) Stopped at the local FedEx to drop off a package...

    Need Help! My TDI won't get up over 1000 rpm,

    Thanks Yuri.. Thanks Yuri, yep, I'm the first one to admit that although I can rebabbit an 80 year Ford, the whole Diesel thing is quite different! I called my brother simply because he works on diesels, which is a lot closer to my TDI than a Model T! :-) I found the TDI club website (that's...

    Need Help! My TDI won't get up over 1000 rpm,

    Thanks...can I d/c the batter to clear the code ? Thanks, Can I clear the code by disconnecting the battery? It doesn't have enough power to get out of the street, and the black smoke is horrendous when I try to get any RPM's out of it.....
