VW gas engines are interference engines. Not sure about the diesel ones. If you have had a timing belt fiasco, then you will have to take the head to a shop. BE SURE they know something about VW engines. I took mine to a reputable engine rebuilder but I had to take it apart again and take the head back because they didn't know to check everything. The first time they replaced bent valves, the second they had to replace valve guides and shave the head. When you get the head back from the shop, turn it upside down and pour water into the combustion chambers. If it leaks out the valves then the head has to go back, it won't work. Your engine will run lean and overheat. Hope this helps.

worn belt tension idler pulley. Try locating it and spray with some WD-40 or other lubricant to see if that stops the squealing. if it does, replace it. They are made with a sealed bearing and the noise is an indicator that it is going bad. Also check the water pump pulley and the alternator pulley to make sure they are tight. Without listening to the car, its difficult to say with any level of accuracy, but this should get you on the right track.

The engine has probably died when the lights come on. could be a faulty ignition switch. Hard to tell without doing some trouble shooting.

If I remember correctly; 1. Disconect the battery for a while (I'm no sure about the time) 2. Reconect the battery. 3. Turn the ignotion switch to "ON" position but do not start the car, let it like this for 5 min. 4. Start the car and let is run for about 5 to 10 min without touching the gas pedal. 5. This is the last and the most important step...DRIVE IT HARD I think this is the way for the ECU to reset and recalibrate TPS, ect.... DO NOT TOUCH THE GAS
