    I’ve been meaning to do this for the longest now. Usually only leaves me stranded when it’s really hot

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  3 роки тому

      Thats quite common to do that when its hot / had time for the heat to soak into the sensor, had the same on BMW X5 E53 3.0d, would only do it once warm

      ​@@GreyGooseRestorationshow does heat cause this sensor to bug out? Everything was fine when it was 40°, by the time it was 65°, it started bugging out, timing and everything is fine considering I rebuilt the head. I bought a genuine one instead of a generic, hopefully that'll fix the problem during warmer days

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  Рік тому +1

      Heat soaks into the electrical parts and its causes high resistance resulting in the faults

    Does it goes to limp mode/rpm cut down & won't accelerate when it occur?

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  2 роки тому +4

      No limp mode but it cuts revs and the rev counter drops to zero and a dead throttle, then it wakes up again and was fine for a while

    Recently got one with crank no start.
    Would it make much difference if someone had been using E10 fuel .not E 5 ?

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  Рік тому

      I don't think so, i used my Mk5 on E10 since it changed over and for 30 off thousand miles with no adverse effects.

      @GreyGooseRestorations  3 роки тому +1

      Bosch was my first choice but best one available was hella, would have been £172 but got 60% discount off that 😁 see how it goes, hella have been making electronic parts for years so im confident itll do the job

    Before you changed your crankshaft sensor, did you have P0341 code, when trying to start the car? Asking cause my mk5 gti has the same issue and idk whether it's the crankshaft sensor, or if I just need a new starter.

    Hi
    Thanks for the video , I just wanna ask is the crank sensor is same with speed sensor becsuee I have similar issue just the transmission shifting to the first speed when that happen and showing VSS speed sensor error when I check it , so I can’t find the speed sensor only I found the crank sensor same you and there is people or garage saying the VSS speed sensor in transmission valve body
    My car VW GTI 2009 2.0 turbo automatic transmission, thanks and waiting your kind reply

      Fault code P0501

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  Рік тому

      Speed sensor will be slightly different as the transmission will have a input and output speed sensor so its more that likely the fault is within the transmission

    No idea if you’ll see this but have an issue on my mk5 its a fully built car running silly power i do race it as well the weekend i was driving it did a few hard pulls nothing new car ran perfectly since then cars been parked past 2/3days come out to drive it started fine drove ok until i come to go on boost starting juddering and also most like a miss fire backed off the pedal and it drove fine off boost i did plug it in and it did bring up a P0321 code would that be my crank sensor? I know have a crank position sensor and crank speed sensor on these

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  7 місяців тому

      It could be, but my initial thoughts are a coil pack as my old 20v would do this as in drive fine until it was on boost. Clear the fault codes and drive it again and then re check codes? Do you have a management light illuminated

    • @GreyGooseRestorations
      @GreyGooseRestorations  2 роки тому

      Once warm and after a long good drive it wouldn't start again, heat soak causing the sensor fail, gave the sensor wiring a wiggle around and it would fire up and be fine for a few days.

    • @GreyGooseRestorations

      It could well be crank sensor then, its the heat soak from the engine into the aged sensor, soon as the ecu picks up any missed signal from the crank sensor it'll shut down
