S3 seems to run bad once warm ! And won't start ??

[motfree]

Had a few problems with my s3
Anyways replaced mass airflow and cam shaft sensor but now it seems to be cutting out once warm then will not start again .. Last time came up with the above faults but these have been replaced .. But before I put the new turbo on the car wouldn't hesitate to start ( didn't have boost mind ) .. My mates don't have a clue neither do I and I'm loosing patience haha any help would be great
Cheers

Possibly the fuel pump i take it there are no fault codes ? Or as above lol.

fuel pump would cause more of an issue when cold that warm....

Knock sensor was on the diagnostics no1 and no2 I think !! What do these do ?

 

[1animal1]

its a snensor that fits in the block, only way is to replace....otherwise the situation will get worse

make sure you get a car specifc one too as i got sent a golf one and it didnt work!! £40 wasted

Is there 2 sensors ? Might just take it the garage and let them sort it out .. If it makes it haha ..

nope just one..... and its a royal pain in the *** without a ramp....you have to remove the undertray and the mount at the front of the inlet manifold, undo the securing nut from the top then remove the sensor out the bottom, **** of a job

Don't you mean crank speed sensor dude? That's what I would put my money on....

There are indeed 2 knock sensors.
