help with vag com fault

[danb4lur]

just thought i would post this up as im doing my nut with this code, any ideas?
ive got a 99 treg abf engine cupra sport ibiza, it seems to be abit flat half way up the rev range and ive plug it into vagcom and its coming up with cylinder 1 recognition sensor, does anyone have any clue what this fault might be, cheers.

I think you might need a new distributor.

thanks mate, i managed to google the code and it came up with the same thing, just didnt realise how dear the part is!! just my luck itll be the lambda aswell.
just another quick question my brother has got a golf mk 2 16valve, are these similar in performance and you dont now how much the cupra weighs by anychance, its pretty basic with no sunroof or aircon, one of my mates said 900kgs and its got an alloy skin roof? how true that is i dont know, any answers would be appreciated!

Mk2s are heavier than 900kg.....
