A year on, but I have a decent garage, and enough space to start working. First up. Ignition issues. I mentioned the plug leads? Well, they were all a problem. Fortunately, I have a full set of spares. Now all replaced. Distributor caps. Brand new both sides, fitted by someone a very short time before I bought it. But one (left) looks like this- And the CTP/WOT wiring was nasty like this I also found the right distributor hall sensor connection was broken loose. This I still have to investigate further- I have a good replacement distributor fitted, but still code 2113 is appearing. Oil leaks at the back of the head appear to be cam shaft seal/distributor outlets. So, with some significant, but temporary wiring repairs, it starts and idles much better. CTP/WOT definitely works, but. I have yet to test if the ECU is even seeing these. Wiring issues investigated in the front bumper show simple connection issues of the multiple on the right chassis rail, where the bumper harness attaches. S indicators work, but one fog light connection in the harness is high resistance on both live and ground. So a new section of wiring to be run in. This car does not have headlamp wash wipe, but the connections are there. I may look at installing these... 85 WR quattro 90 V8 Silver, 91 V8 Black, 93 V8 Lago 93 100e quattro V6.
