Hey think u could make a video on how to time the dizzy citi 1.4i

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

That video is already on my channel feel free to browse or search under the playlist "vw repairs".

[@gerl9869]

Interesting, now we know this, in some cases it might be helpful to see if the tensioner really turns, which is sometimes hard to see, is to put a white marking on the edge of the tensioner. If it stands still, or moves slowly or irregular, then the tensioner is gone.

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

Good tips there Ger L.

How do you remove the tensioner the stud is very tight don't want to break it what's the best way to remove the stud

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

Lock 2 nuts together by using 2 spanners, then turn it loose, this works for me every time.

Hi sir i have a problem on my mpi golf mk1 car is over revving clean throttle body replace map sensor and cold start sensor when throttle body is unplugged the idle comes down thanks

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

You need a new throttle body.

[@AlyroyMacDonald]

Thanks Sir will do so

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

Good luck keep me posted.

[@warrenvanboom5087]

Hi Gary, was wondering if you would guide me in the right direction, mk1 citi golf auto 1.6... Carb. 93 I think. Starts first time when cold however after driving a while then stop and get some coffee.... The car will swing none stop before eventually firing. I replaced coil, module, new rotor, spark plugs timing perfect. What am I missing here? I would appreciate your input. Regards Warren

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

Hi Warren, you may want to invest in a new distributor, check this video from my library ua-cam.com/video/ltTaYH5LW0Y/v-deo.html

[@warrenvanboom5087]

@@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790 Thank you for your response, I actually swopped the distributor today with another friend to test.. Same problem starts up first time everytime however as soon as the car stands a while when hot then it takes a hella lot of swinging before it fires.

Hi any video on how to change my front brakes on a vw citi golf 1.4i

[@vehiclemaintenanceandrepai3790]

I will be doing one soon, Shaun thanks for the suggestion.

[@drevil2783]

Those timing adjuster units are crap. I've had it where it goes loose all by itself. Then when you try to tighten it a bit more you strip the threat. VW!!!!

[@drevil2783]

@@pietertorlage4547 my bad on the timing sdjuster tdnsioner issue. Still is a kak design and still is a kak make of a car, period. Same with audi. Toyota is the best. Now be clever with someone else please....

Yeah easy money for some unscrupulous guys, Mbuso.
