Hi Crasher,

Sorry to bother you and messaging you out of the blue, after searching many topics on this forum and reading many of your posts, it seems you are the guru when it comes to vw's.. I have a golf mk5 1.9 tdi which had stood for around 6 months.. fitted a new battery to get it going and the instrument cluster starting playing up, the backlight starting going through a dimming cycle and an 'error' appeared and then completely shut off, no dials, LCD or anything. Car starts, drives and everything else works including exterior lights, radio, dimmer control ect. No lights or dials when key on then works for that few seconds when starting, then once started goes off again. Have checked interior fuse 6 and under bonnet fuse 17 and all okay. Have read codes and get a 0003 - control module malfunction.
Have now removed the dash and sent away for repair. Do you think this will solve the issue? Or do you have any tips?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Michael

Hi Crasher, you seem to be the man to talk to when it comes to diesel VAG engines. I am over on vwaudi forum but for some reason my phone doesn’t let me view member profiles. Anyway, I’ve posted a question on here, over in the new member section and I’d be really grateful if you could maybe have a quick glance at it if you get 5 minutes.

Cheers

Hey was referred by keithuk for some info on the timing set up for 1.4 tsi engine bmy with a chain, I'm damned if I know if I am on compression stroke or exhuast and should the cams be aligned with the start of compression stroke or Start of exhaust?

Hi crasher, you asked me to pm my reg plate. It's PK06 DZF. Cheers.
