Hello , I am new here. I have got a Golf 2.5 engine Petrol. The problem is that the Golf that I bought was used and I purchased it around 2 years ago. No major problems until a few weeks back when my car started acting up on me. I turn it on that it immediately turns off. Than turn right back on and drive for hours maybe days than randomly stalls at a red light or when I’m on the first gear. It has been doing it a lot lately. I changed the crankshaft sensor and the problem remains. I changed the camshaft sensor , still remains. Any help? Mechanics seem to do nothinf as I have spent almost 500$ till now with no fix. Any help?

ergys01: Hi. Why did you change the crankshaft sensor? What does the SCAN report for this car say about this problem? Don

Hey Don, The computer said I had to change the crankshaft sensor and I did. Seems like it doesn’t relate to the problem. Computer now shows absolutely nothing.
Sorry for my late replies.

OK- the problem I have in responding is that there is NO specificity in the information provided - the back story for this car is far too vague!!! Clearly any suggestion that I make based on your explanation would be a wild guess (and I don't make wild guesses).
If you want to proceed, post-up a copy of the OBD11 SCAN report so we can see how this car was built.
However, given the unknowns, I suspect the best approach is to start with the basics - meaning check the fuel/air systems and the ignition components.
Don
