HELP! Automagik Golf No Start...

[green536@hotmail.com (Chris DeLong)]

you are correct. Bosch actually put out a TSB on VW auto starters. The fix 
is to install relay kit part no. WR-1. This of course istn to say that auto 
starters dont fail. they fail more than manual ones. this relay kit is the 
first step to fixing the problem though.
