Won’t start [Resolved]
- Thread starter Van Buddy
- Start date
The peculiar bit from the downloads, as pointed out by @mmi & @Dellmassive is that the ECU is not firing the injectors. The opening times are 0 degrees. It's not a injector side of the ECU issue, otherwise we'd see injector durations in the logs. Fuel pressure is OK, RPM is OK, showing 190 RPM on the starter, so the crank sensor is OK. it has to be looking like cam timing or cam sensor now surely?
Problem solved for the smell and non-start. Thanks to everyone who helped with their comments. It was due to camshaft timing.
Smell was timing belt rubber and timing thrown out by water pump pulley failure.
was a new Gates pump 4K ago.
Let’s hope there wasn’t any valve contact.

oh no..
The belt is under most tension when you try to start the engine, so it's likely to of failed when trying to start the engine. Lets hope it snapped in a position at slow speed where the valves don't touch the piston.
Good luck with the fix.

I've got my fingers and toes crossed for you!
Did you fit a new water pump when the timing belt was replaced 4000 miles ago?
Same here but the genuine VW version isn't much more expensive and with it being critical I think I'm going down that route, even more so now.
Some brilliant diagnostics in this thread and hope you are up and running after fitting the new kit @Van Buddy.
Crikey, you don't hang about once the thing is in bits!
Congratulations!
For future reference could you please do again an engine blockmap now and then another after 500-1000 miles.
In addition to engine maps I would appreciate a blockmap of controller 22 (AWD-4Motion) please.
Very very lucky great result, have you spoken to Gates?
