It is in the distributor and as far as I can tell, is not available as a spare part.

00513 Engine speed sender G28, No signal.

Engine cuts out/will not start (fuel pump and injectors deactivated)

1) Fault in power or earth supply for Hall sender -G40
2) Open circuit or short to earth/positive in signal wire between -G40 and engine control unit
3) Hall sender -G40 defective
4) Signal input in engine control unit defective (control unit defective)

Notes on fault code 00513:

Engine control unit receives engine speed information from Hall sender in ignition distributor.
Hall sender -G40 is monitored instead of engine speed sender -G28.
Fault code can be ignored with ignition on and engine not running.
Observe fault code with ignition on following unsuccessful attempted starting (engine does not start).

Pretty sure i get that with VagCom only when the engine isnt running. Goes away when the engine is on, mines an 8v too.
