whkdad Thank you so much. That's exactly what I needed! 🙏

Hello All, I have a 1999 Beetle 1.9. I have been searching high and low for a pin out of the fan control module. Mine is a 10 pin module. Original part # 1JO 919 506 H. The dealership says they cannot get this part OEM anymore. I have tried 4 aftermarket FCM's. They've all gone bad in less than...

Yes indeed! I originally missed the collar. now it’s close. I just need vag-com now.

I have to borrow a vag-com I’ll have it in a few days. Everything I did was guess work. I didn’t realize what I was getting into. Just like anything else, I keep going until I figure it out. I’m just trying to get it back to stock settings. 🤞I appreciate every bit of info I get in this forum. 🙏

Where should it be idling?

After some patience, I got it to smooth out and idle right at 900 rpm. It’s extremely sensitive, but I seem to have better performance after replacing those gaskets. Thank you for your help!

Thank you. I got it running without increasing rpm, but now the idle is rough. Besides that it’s running great.

I probably should have mentioned it’s a 1999 beetle ALH. Crazy day! My apologies. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I replaced the two main gaskets on injector pump, and it’s running great, just a rough idle. I’m not sure what I did to make it idle like this. Also it’s sitting at 1k rpm when idling. I’m lost?????

99 ALH here, I replaced the 2 cover plate gaskets on the injector pump, and now my idle just keeps going up. I have to shut it off to keep it from increasing the idle. Any thoughts on what I did wrong?

I have a 99 beetle 1.9 ALH, I replaced the 2 cover gasket’s on the injection pump. It cleared the air out, and now the idle just races up like she’s gonna blow. Please help????

Going back together was a breeze! I couldn’t have done without this forum! Thank you to everyone! I couldn’t be happier right now.

Got it all back together. It runs amazing!

Amazon sells a gasket, but it’s not recommended to replace it. It’s supposed to be a permanent gasket. If the gasket is like mine and in pieces, the Valve cover should be replaced. AUTOHAUZ AZ sells new ones for $75.00

ALH head gasket 271k

I’m kind of an idiot when it comes to adding photos, do you know how to add a photo?

I probably should have mentioned I just bought this car with 271k on it.

I dropped off the head at German Auto in Phoenix. They are tdi specialists. Everyone in my area says if I don’t bring it to them I’m an idiot. Lol. Should be a week before I get it back.
