Hi there Jorge how are you doing? im not sure if you speak español or not but i´ll write to you in english. I also have a really beautiful 87 GTI 16V and i had the same fucking problem for over a year and i change lots of stuff, and spend lots of money trying to solve the problem and its really simple, Your knock sensor and knock sensor control unit (the little black box below the winshield and the passenger side is bad. Just replace it with one who has the same code, the code is 811 907 397E but if you don´t find it with the E at the end don´t worry it will work too. the letter E is for 16V and if it has no letter E it comes from an 8V car but it will advance timing a little more so you´ll have a little more of power. Good luck.

I've seen a lot of posts on this, but never a solution. This problem is driving me F@#$% nuts. I've replace a lot of shit and I really can't afford $$$ to keep on missing the target. Help anyone???
