Hi guys,
been looking at getting a 156 for a while and have seen a cheap little 156 pop up close to me with a misfire issue (it's a 1.6 on a 2000). Ideally I wanted a 2.4 JTD but not found a suitable one yet!
Anyway, before I go look at it, the 1.6 (and I suppose the 2.4 for future ref) ECU - is it readable by mere mortals? Is it 3-pin or 16-pin? Is there any software that will work with a VAG-COM lead? (We wrote some for the older Fiats, that cable just made life easier )
Also, any common issues on the 156? I gather the EGR valve is one?
Ideally I'd like to go down and plug my laptop in, see what it says before manually trying to find the cause!
Thanks in advance
