I think it is your transmission, i believe your torgue converter is locked up, what is happening, when u put it in gear the torgue from the engine is put into coverter, it has a series of cluthes inside that get tighter as force is applied by your transmission, however if the torgue converter is seized, then all of the motors energy is being applied to your trans, then to your axles, since your car is on the ground and not moving it kills the motor.
The Sprinter is designed by Mercedes Benz, and the 'ADR' is probably an abbreviation for German. But it refers to a 'working speed governor'. On the information I found, there is a two-position switch on the left portion of the steering wheel to set an increased idle speed. Depressing the top of this switch engages the governor (increased idle) and turns the light on. Depressing the bottom of the switch turns off the governor (back to normal idle) and turns the light off.
Hi Mike, I have not checked the torque settings for you, but wonder if you've worked on other engine assembly before your VW? My first question concerns the crankshaft. Was it sent for grinding and was the work carried out correctly? Secondly; during the tightening sequence did you rotate the crankshaft during the tightening sequence? The main bearings should be tightened from the centre cap and work progressively outwards. Tightening should be carried out in steps, rotating the crankshaft as the bolts are tightened. As an example, if the main bearings are tightened to 65 foot lbs begin with a setting of 30 ft lbs and as each cap is tightened rotate the crankshaft checking for smooth rotation. If this method is followed and the crankshaft fails to rotate, recheck the bearing and machining size. When fitting the cylinder head use the same stage tightening, starting at the centre and using a spiral pattern, work outwards to the outer bolts. Regards John
There are several torque setting for each car. I would suggest you go to the local parts store and purchase a manual and it will have all the specifications.
You should go to www.reliable-store.com they have got books on every vehicle and also how to service/repair it, parts info, fuse box, gear box, torque specs, wiring diagrams, electrical diagrams, fuse diagrams, error codes, etc everything
I'm assuming you meant a 1.8L 4V, if so the torgue settings for the head bolts are stage 1: 30 ft-lbs stage 2: 44 ft-lbs stage 3: Angle-tighten a further 90-degrees stage 4: Angle-tighten a further 90-degrees
Also I recommend you buy new cylinder head bolts from the vdub dealer, they say you don't have to with a gas engine but only with diesel engines you should, from my past experience it felt like the old bolts were going to snap off to be safe buy new ones. If you have never done this before "stage1" this means each bolt gets this one time, then after you have done each bolt at this torgue then you do the bolts again (stage 2) with this torgue ect. Remmeber to always cris cross your bolting and work from one side to the other the same time for each stage. Vdubs 4-ever !
