#1: engine cuts out Author: andygriff, Location: shropshirePosted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 10:51 am ---- hi my x plate 206 gti keeps cuttin out when it feels like it,had the aa out 2 it and he said fuel pump so i changed the pump and it did it again last nite got the car home fuel pump was not workin again and no spark left the car a few hours and its started 1st time
any idea what it could be ???
#2: Re: engine cuts out Author: HDI90, Location: sunny stokePosted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 10:57 am ---- No spark could be a number of things, 1st is the coilpack and second thing maybe a immoblizer fault as im sure it cuts the spark but dont hold me to this
#3: Re: engine cuts out Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 12:18 pm ---- Pretty sure the imob cuts the spark but it shouldn't do it if already running?
It's an odd one, dont think many have ended up properly fixing it

#5: Re: engine cuts out Author: andygriff, Location: shropshirePosted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 12:42 pm ---- did that cure the problem ?
#6: Re: engine cuts out Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Sun Jan 08, 2012 12:46 pm ---- Well mine wouldnt start at all, was turning over but no spark. Changed the sensor nd its started first time ever since

#10: Re: engine cuts out Author: andygriff, Location: shropshirePosted: Sat Jan 14, 2012 10:30 am ---- why bosch plugs ? i have put new ngk plugs and new lucas coil pack,been for a good drive so it gets warm and she ran fine
#11: Re: engine cuts out Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Jan 14, 2012 10:44 am ---- NGK cause the misfire phase detection system to go haywire, also reduces the life of the coil pack and causes misfires
Do your research.
