I have a VW Passat 2013 2.0 Tdi that will not start. Purchased a Crankshaft Position Sensor. Not sure where it is on this vehicle.
Hi Gerard. I hope Your keeping grand. Sadly it appears my camshaft sprocket remains pretty much dead centre. I also carried out disconnecting its position sensor but the engine refused to start. Any other ideas would be gratefully appreciated, should you be able to find the time. I have a multi meter, good tools, but that's about it. I'm assuming the issue is not the camshaft speed sensor itself, as these engines will run with this item disconnected. Many Thanks In Advance.
You may have just have saved me a small fortune. I was losing hope to an extent. I drove the car parked it up, then it refuses to start that Evening. Servicing has been kept bang up to date. Interestingly its timing belt, and water pump were replaced only several weeks ago. It has been such an easy starter to date, and was seemingly running nicely. It delivered 65.2m.p.g running up to Morecambe and back to Cornwall. I've precious few pennies to replace the car with at this time. If Your advice pays off here Gerard I will really need to send you a decent drink Sir.. Thank You so very much for posting a clear concise video.
So unfortunate that the same engine but in Amarok 2013 2hB model the sensor connector is inaccessible :/
The connector is between the block and oil cooler by the looks. No possible to remove it without pulling the head.
How fucked.
So will it make it out of time if u loosen the bolts
Thank youu brother I found my clue
Thank you sir you are a flamin legend
This is the exact issue my car is having now I finally have some direction and know how to handle this. Thank you so much you have saved me so much money
You legend followed this video checked plug to rule wiring out 5v on all tests so adjusted torsion on cam and wow 1st click fired up
Bonus just got my golf 1.9tdi BLS engine and it starts after a while noticed cam sensor not plugged in properly she just had full cam belt kit I'll test loom and look for signs as befor this she would fire straight up
I am having the same issue with a 2006 Jetta TDI with manual trans and 167,000 miles. Just this week when starting the car, it would start and run but I would hear a noise for a few seconds after start that sounded like the starter bendix was still engaged, lasting for 4-5 seconds. (installed new starter around 130,00) I think this is unrelated to the "no start" issue
This morning, the car would start and shut off after 3 or so seconds.
Now after a few attempts, it will turn over but not start.
I hooked up my Autel scan gauge and it would load to 98% and then say link failed. Did this numerous times.
Also when the key is in ignition and turned to the on position, after 10 or so seconds the cooling fans would come on at full speed. (this is with a cold engine).
I can not hear any relays clicking.
Ideas on where to start?
Good video and very well explained.
It’s a software fault from the factory, worn engines won’t start very well on amount of fuel delivered when hot
My car only has difficulty staring when warm could this be the same issue?
