Date Posted: April 06, 2009 at 11:32 AM

I have an 07 city gold comming in this week and was just wondering a few things.  First of all it would be great if someone could post me a diagram as my charts only go up to 06 for golf but than i have the new passat, jetta, rabbit and van which is weird.  The only other thing I'm wondering is if these come in gas or diesel or what.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

P.S.  I know KarTune has this (haha)

Sweet. Same wires for Canadian models? That would be nice. I thought my wiring diagram site would say use 2007 Jetta though. I'll hope that's what it is. If it's not I have 800 numbers. Thank you.

Same for the Canadian models. Use a module to control all the accessories and output tach, triggers and also use a universal bypass mod for the key. If your using an iDatalink Blade-AL, then no need for the universal bypass.

Using a CANSL2 interface module for security is still a good idea if you want to reduce time on the install.

I don't understand.  I didn't say I was doing an alarm, keyless entry or a remote starter.  I do not need any extra modules to do an Ignition Interlock.

I figured you needed it because you posted it in the security section and assumed that you were asking for trigger and alarm information seeing that all you asked about was for wiring information and was trying to save you time if you were going to be installing an alarm.

If your doing an ignition kill, then just use this: ( the ignition wire is black from the base of the ignition switch )

Don't understand why you are even asking. Firstly the car has a perfectly good transponder, so good that they failed often enough on the Mk llls.  VW have used RED / black and black or BLACK/ blue for start and ignition since the Mk l Golf/Rabbit up to now.  Second why do we have DMMs?

I believe we have DMMs for testing and thanks for asking.  Next time I have a question don't answer it.     Oh and the Golf isn't the same as the Jetta as the 07 Jetta has a RED / yellow power.  I found 12 - Red, Crank - RED / Black and Ign. - Black so it is the same as almost all the VWs from a few years back.    All I said was when people were telling me all this info that I didn't need that I appreciated it but I didn't need it.  An Ignition Interlock is a breathalyzer for people who get caught driving impaired.  I just wanted to know where abouts to use my meter and what to try first just in case it was different from other VWs I have worked on because I'm not familiar with what City meens.  I thought it would be the same car as the normal golf but I know that the windshields are different so obviously the car is different in someways.  Yes of course I can test for my wires when the car gets here but that wasn't the point.  I asked in security and convenience because I thought that was the only place to post about wiring diagrams.  I didn't realize this would be such an easy car to do I wouldn't have asked obviously.  And I still don't know if these can come in diesel but the one today was gas.  Thanks again Velocity, you're the shiznak

I'm sorry you felt that way, but you appeared to be a pro so you shouldn't have asked*, I also apologise for the facetious answer. In terms of what you asked, most of the Golfs/Jettas /Rabbits  and Passats sold in Europe and UK are diesels. There is no reason why the City should have different wiring, Focus and Mondeo are the same, of the Focus clones, Mazda 3 is virtually identical wiring wise but Volvo 30/50 and Land Rover Freelander are different but similar to each other. In Europe, Seat, Audi and Skoda are all very similar on the major colours.  *Yesterday and today I did alarm R/S installs in 2 vehicles I've never done before with no asking others or crib sheets.  I just went out and tested everything, because I'm a pro!

Thank you. I just learned something. I can also do a vehicle I don't know or have never seen before, great. I try to be prepared for something that might come up unexpectedly when I have 32 appointments in the same day. Confidence is great but only gets you so for when you have 4 people standing there looking at you when you're not multiplying anytime soon to help them. This is a place to get help remember. I don't think a PRO can ever stop learning.

Come on, I have to fly 500 miles at a day's notice or drive 200, to do 10+ trackers, not even knowing what makes I'm installing to. Yes I even carry two cordless irons, backup butane and multiple bits such as Torx Philips Hex etc, also those 4.  Are they staff or customers?  If the second, get them away from where you're working.  If you want to see how a REAL pro who try's to help others gets help when he asks a straight question which you didn't please look at "is this possible?" by t&t.  Your first post should simply have asked for VW start and main ign clolours.

Your welcome and my apologies for assuming that you wanted remote start information. I've had to deal with these systems as well in the past and they are very difficult especially the ones that you have to breath into and then hum for 3 seconds afterwards...... PITA !!

the city golf is a carry over car, it has the same wiring info as the 99 1/2-06 golf.

You must be a REAL pro if know one else could possibly do your job within 500 miles.  And because of your job it meens I'm not busy at all?  Or is it just that you have it worse than me so I should just know the wires when I clearly have much less experience than you do.  What does it matter what vehicle make you're installing into if they're trackers.  Yes I agree I should have simply asked for crank, ign. and 12v, but I figured wherever someone gets that info from if it wasn't by memory would be a diagram they could just simply send me anyway plus I like to see if there is a tach location because again I didn't know if they could be diesel.  The people that are waiting here are clients sitting in the waiting room outside my office beside my shop (not literally standing in the shop) because they need to pay for more usage on their device for their car.  This is all the while doing installs, removals, boomerangs, what have you.  Well in conclusion I think I've had much more of a hassel trying to ask help on here than if I did just use my meter when the car came in.  Would "is the possible" by t&t be a book?  Or am I just missing something?  Please refer me to this.

Oh and Velocity they now are blow and hum the whole time 5 or 6 secs. WR3 now as opposed to the WR2 that you may have been used to.

The whole point is if you'd have asked for the colours straight away I'd have told you. i was referring to the thread because he's a straight up youngster, not afraid to either help others or ask for advice and doesn't blow his cool. Which is why a lot of people chime in to help him.  Incidentally are your trackers plauged with software issues? I find that whatever an install takes on a particular vehicle doing a trouble shoot takes about 4 times as long.

Well I must say for somebody who dosn't post any information at all about what they are doing

they sure are picky about somebody wasting there time to help them.

Maybe you should go down to the ymca dressingroom and do a tallywacker measuring competition there as im sure nobody really cares how much of a superstar you are or think you are

Wow....what an ungrateful piece of doodie. You ask such an open ended question, and don't like the answers. Be specific and tell us exactly what you need. It saves everyone alot of trouble. And, yes Howie is a pro...if you were as good as him....you wouldn't be asking the question.

I am working my way towards being this good. I am learning about posting as well as learning about cars. I'm sorry I didn't get straight to the point. I know from now on. I honestly thought it would be easier to just post a diagram as opposed to typing it all out. I am sorry to Howie II I did not mean to disrespect anyone although some here blatantly did. And I imagine the question I asked before is something that t&t tech wrote? I will look into this when I have a bit more time.

we don't really mean to be harsh man, but your question really was open ended so there was no need to be bitter towards howard, he was simply replying in normal format, we know you're learning about the site, i'm also still a newbie around here, compared to alot of the guys around, and learning is all about being corrected by the ones who already know there way around, but it seems you didn't appreciate the correction.

Don't allow this start on the wrong foot to prevent you from posting around here, hang around and you will learn lots from the guys around here, i can tell you personally, and from the type of vehicles you named earlier in this thread, i'd say alot of the teaching will be done by howie,posted_image
