Suggestion

They replaced the sensor, and I think that fixed it but car has also had 300 miles since that was done so I'll likely be the one to find out if it didn't.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good day all. I have a 99 C4 6 speed 106k miles, recently started having a hot start issue where it idles rough and seems to be in limp mode . Will not accerate past 12-1500rpm and the Cruise control light is iluminated when it happens. I turn it off wait 20-30 seconds and restart. everything seems fine. looking for info if anyone has had same issue. I installed the UAOS system when i bought the car at 97K along w new coils, plugs and leaking tubes .Car has been rock solid w no lights or codes since the day I got it. I'm leaning towards TPS heading south, I will also clean up IAC as well. It's always has a bit of warm hard start issue but the limp mode thing is new, worried it will leave me stranded one day.

POST 2Original post

I just picked up a used 996 and in his service records he had an issue of warm start. Tech found crankshaft sensor was bad. When warm pins 1 and 2 showed as an open circuit and not till cool showed resistance. They replaced the sensor, and I think that fixed it but car has also had 300 miles since that was done so I'll likely be the one to find out if it didn't.
