    Hello everyone,

    Nice to be back in the AGG MK3 camp. Just installed one of these into my VW campervan and ironing out rough idle issues.

    I hooked it upto VCDS lite and getting these errors and readings from measuring blocks:

    Can anyone shed light on these? Lambda goosed? Timing out?

    Thanks :)

    17978 is immobiliser code, so you can ignore that one.

    dizzy timing looks to be out, adjust the distributor while you watch group 7 blocks 1 & 2:
    1 - 57-60 or 1
    2 - 5 - 8

    then once sorted clear the fault codes to see if the lambda comes back after a drive

    Managed to adjust my timing today, what is the 'ideal' setting? Does say 57 / 5 make any difference over 1 / 8? Thanks
