VW POLO BLM

Post by Anda2006 »

Morning everyone.
I`m Gxarha from EC. My BLM doesn`t want to start. The first thing I noticed was lack of power. Then I saw the pipe that goes to the throttle body cut then I replaced the pipe. It started normally but only drove for 10km then lost power and couldn`t even rev, when reving the idling cuts. Now doesn`t want to start at all. Someone advised to get airflow sensor which I did but still doesn`t start.

Please help

What diagnostic trouble codes are you getting?

Start there. Then check basics like spark, fuel pressure (with a pressure gauge) and the cam timing.

If all of those are correct, then the car should run.

Let us know what you find.
