Hey guys, I sourced a new engine to replace my misfiring one. the new engine (azd) has all the same spec as my old engine (AUS) EXCEPT the ignition system. Mine is individual iginition leads and distributor. the new is a coild pack system.
Any idea what to do or will I need the ecu from the new engine too?
ANything else?
hahah i know it was due to low compression in cylinder 4 and was told was probbaly easier to source engine which i did for 200 euro so thought that was a better expense than taking the head apart.
I imagine you took the full harness with the engine, at least for the coil packs. If you have the engine harness it should plug right into the ecu and away you go.

Yes thats right I have the harness for the coil pack just not the ecu. Would it be better to get the ecu from the same engine or will it matter if I source the ecu from another car. just guy is trying to get ecu for 100 whereas i can source it locally from another car for 50
You'll want all of the harness related to the ignition.
There's probably a crank position sensor and wiring you need as well for the ecu to know when to fire the coils. Unless the distributor block has the same sensor.
About to hit 100k on my 01 Gti Vr6. I just got my car about a year ago and want to make sure i get the most lifespan out of it since i plan to keep it for some time. Any list of recommendations to do at 100k is much appreciated!

I have changed the ECU and the Engine of a golf 4, from 1.6 gasoline engine, to 1.9 131cv TDI engine, how is it possible to put the VIN number in the ECU
Thanks
I'm sort of new here but I was wondering if the 2.0 liter non-GTI can have an added turbo added to it and if so how does it run?
also can you point me to a direction where i could see this setup, or another thread/link... thanks?
So I go to use my a/c today and it never turned on. I push the button, it lights up but no cold air. Blower is blowing good. Thing is I never heard the compressor kick on. Usually it makes my car idle high and vibrate like a sob. What should I be looking for? Not sure what fuses to check or...
The clip that holds the selector lever cable on the top of the transmission popped off. I have a new on (1J0-711-280-C) to install but having a hard time getting it to go completely down to hold the cable in position. It is on a 2003 Jetta 2.8L, 24V engine. Is there any tool or way to get it...
