Re: Here we go again: Idle and hesitations problems 1.8 16V
Just to follow up: I have now tried to make sense on how the Air intake temperature can read 40 degrees C at 20 degrees C. To solve it I bought a new one. It reads the same... Took it of, it then reads -40C. Shorted the plug and it reads 130C. I have no clue on how this can be 20 degrees C off with ...

Rad fan/Cooling fan on 1.8 16V w/ A/C not working - Solved
My radiator fans on my 1.8L 16V w/ A/C was not working at slow speed, and one fan was not spinning at high speed. Here is how I went on with trouble shooting: Had a look in the wiring diagrams in Haynes for the model. Not much to go on, but gave some idea about how to go on. Checked the three relays...

Re: Rad fan test - how?
Here is what I did to fix my similar problem: Checked the three relays were indeed working when actuated, they are found in the front of the rad under the plastic cover with the logo - Contact cleaner sprayed everywhere. Checked the connector for the Bitron controller was ok and clean - Contact clea...

Re: Here we go again: Idle and hesitations problems 1.8 16V
Just to keep you guys reading this, posted: I have looked into the TP part, nothing seems wrong with the readout (not actually had pp2000 connected), since there is no sodden jump in RPM's or anything while going from 850 RPM to 2000 RPM. I have also had another look at the throttle body from the ou...

Re: Here we go again: Idle and hesitations problems 1.8 16V
I think I would get this fault instead: "mixture regulation auto-adaptation - upper stop" if the problem was to little air/too much fuel, but that is just me, since googling "mixture regulation auto-adaptation - lower stop" doesn't get any hits or very low hits. http://www.liontamer.net/forums/index...

Re: Here we go again: Idle and hesitations problems 1.8 16V
Could that be "I can't make the mixture weak enough"? My idea as well, that is why I think it gets to much air (check for air leaks) I'm going to presume this condition's existed since you acquired the car? Yes, but not very noticeable in the late summer. First thing I'm going to suggest is to disc...

Here we go again: Idle and hesitations problems 1.8 16V
Hey Sorry if I sound to much of a new comer, but as a matter of fact this is my first car and I'm struck even as I have worked on cars for years. (mostly electric cars and Audi A2's) I have also other PUG owners at hand, but so fare no luck, just more ideas for what to look at next. Here is a little...

Re: Butterfly Valve Throttle Position
Just did a readout with pp2000 on my car and it didn't show any signs of showing the readout in %. Mine sat at 11,3 at minimum and I didn't read out the max, but I might have a second look later (plenty of errors to look into
)

Re: HOW MANY MILES HAS YOUR PUG COVERED?
Mine have done 250000km (sorry don't do miles
) from '99
Have had it for a few month and it have not had any service since '08, so plenty of work to be done on my first car, even as it is going on pretty well.
