There are a dozen things that could cause the symptoms you describe. Faulty fuel pump, dirty injectors, ignition system fault, cracked cylinder head, bad fuel, faulty engine sensor (MAP, OXY) etc. Really need to find a mechanic who can look at it in person. Nov 04, 2014 • 1999 Volkswagen Golf. As a matter of fact, many hatchbacks of today still haven't cought up with the Golf IV qualitywise. My own Golf IV has the 1.6 liter petrol engine with 101 HP.

First, check the fuse box on top of the battery for any signs of melting. If you don't see anything melted, turn the a/c on and then wiggle the big green fuse on the left.

xJay1337. First thing you'd want to do is slap on a multimeter onto the battery and measure the voltage. Should be around 14.4v charge. with the engine off the battery should be over 12v. Your symptons suggest a duff battery because you'd get an alternator light in the event of an alternator failure.

IF it gets colder, then the thermostat is probably knackered (or you have a possible air lock in the cooling system). IF it starts HOT, then most most likely the temperature sensor is knackered. They are common to fail anyway! Sorry but not fitted one on a 1.6 before, not sure where it is.
