VR6 error codes
I've got a 93 build, 94 compliance australian delivered VR6. On really hot days it baulks around 3,000rpm when trying to accelerate, the hotter
it gets the worse it is...
I've had someone with a diagnostic computer pull off the error codes but we don't have a manual to decipher the code and determine best
course of action
The error codes are:
553 Mass Airflow Sensor G70 short with ground, error occurs intermittently
537 Lambda sensor control limit below minimal level. Error occurs intermittently.
Does anyone have a book that explains these things, or know where to find what to do next?
Ta!

Go see the guys down at Mullers 97591818
take 2 secs or call them for them to decipher
My understanding would be Mass Air Flow Meter need cleaning or could be faulty
lambda sensor is in ur exhaust manifold again could be faulty too
Those are my guessses but speak to Paul Muller he's the VAG Com Guru

Motor
Sounds like your running a little rich . I have a spare air flow meter for your car at work . My VR6 no longer uses the air flow meter as it runs an
aftermarket ECU that has a map sensor . I won't be back at work till monday .
