  • Stupidcar is dead again

    Well, after spending the last 4 days in toronto, i come back to shitty Calgary weather and a dead f*kin car.

    I started it up tonight to go and get gas for tomorrow, and it starts a little rough. No big deal i figure caue its cold out. I come back out and it stinks really bad and sounds funny. Sure enough, its missing pretty bad. No CEL. I drive for like 2 feet, and sure enough, flashing CEL.
    Im hoping its only Coilpacks again...

      Hook it up to VAG-COM! -Though this may not explain why your car was dead after 4 days of sitting in the parking lot-

      Check the DTC(s) of the ECU, and you might have a better idea what is wrong.

      Cheers,

      Martin

        I didnt have time to screw around with it so i dropped it off at SSFC tonight. I got a loaner, so thats cool. Im sure its just coil's, but i guess i will find out tomorrow. The service rep said that its common for them to all go if any of them do, and ive already lost 2. The only thing im a little concerned about is the codes for MAF, N75 and DV that i caused playing around with that MBC. O'well. not much i can do about it now.

          Quick update. Still no car. They are waiting on parts. They need to replace the MAF and the ECU.
          It sucks cause the loaner is got is a 96 Jetta GL. O'well at least i got one...
