Let me begin by saying this is my first tdi and my first post so I would like to share my project with the group. To start off its a 2000 jetta 1.9 tdi 5 speed. Got about 290,xxx on the dash or so. I traded a trailer for it so i dont think im in over my head. Now the problem is its supposedly loosing coolant with a bad headgasket, but im not sure as i dont have it running and driving yet to diagnose. I unloaded it off the trailer today and started tearing into it. First i cleaned the gigantic mice nest out from under the hood. Then i started inspecting for chewed wires. So far only about 3 plugs are bit off. The wire to the third injector. The three wires to the sensor on the back of the trans axle. And a good couple of wires on one of the ecu plugs. Ill add some pictures when i figure out how. But thats where i stopped tonight. I read on how to make the paperclip tool to get the wires out of the plug. So ill reconnect them later.
