Hi guys. I've been having all kinds of trouble with the starter motor and alternator and inconsistent running/voltage etc on my 2004 tdi, finally tracked it down to the earth strap connecting behind the ABS unit (n/s behind headlight). The bolt was corroded and when I have tried to remove it it has sheared off, with very little force may I add.
In terms of drilling this out can anyone tell me if I'll likely get enough access with the bumper removed or if anyone has had similar issues? Is it easier to make a new earth point somewhere else?
A two minute job just turned into a few hours I fear!
Thanks for checking this out.
