I don't know the fault codes it was last week we put them through vcds and I didn't know I should of made a note of them...

Lol never mind that last comment it was the egr valve lever I was pushing lol I can't reach my vnt lever without taking egr valve off but I read some other threads and it sounds like it could be sticky vanes. I've read people using oven cleaner on it so I'm going to try that

I found the vnt lever I can move it with one finger but it's a little bit stiff but still move able with one finger

I'm not sure where to find the vnt lever if you could give me a detailed description or pictures please. How am I supposed to get a graph of the specified values? And I cleaned the sensor by completely removing the sensor and cleaning it using electrical contact cleaner, letting it dry for about...

Let me start from the beginning, I got my car remapped nearly 2 weeks ago and it was brilliant nippy little thing. My dad needed to put his own car through vcds so I went with him to my uncle who has own garage and I told him it said service when I start the car so he put mine through the vcds...

I also got the same filter and let me tell you something with these massively replicated air filters. If you're going to get one make sure it's cheap cos they really don't make a difference tbh I must have spent around 150- 200 on 3 different filters all doing the same thing cos there cheap...

Yeah I saw that when I did the same to mine. I took it off and it didn't make a difference tbh it's some sort of vacuum line but I don't have a clue what for

Yeah I got it on it didn't stop the lack of power though and tbh after market parts are good enough for me it was only cheap to fix and can be fixed cheap again. Got it in for the remap to be reprogrammed back on to see if it fixes the problem and if not then I'm open to suggestions

Really struggling to get this back in now is there some trick or what

Great last thing I need is another leak just sorted the oil leak from the dipstick tube (it snapped off) tbh I completely forgot about the o ring it must be inside the housing or something I don't remember seeing it

So last week in posted about my car going into limp mode... it had very poor acceleration and fuel economy turbo kicks in at 3500-4000 rpm asked around but couldn't work it it out put it through diagnostics and got the code Cts (coolant temperature sensor) apparently this failing can cause the...

It's cool out it through vcds and it was the coolant sensor quick 10 pound fix at least if anyone else gets this problem they can check this thread

I'm not sure we put it through diagnostics before this happened so I didn't take notice....

Last Saturday I got my 1.9 tdi remapped and it was sweet as a nut but yesterday I put a new air filter on and the car lost massive power like the turbo doesn't kick in till about 4000rpm there at no lights on the dash the other day I put it through diagnostics and there was no major codes just...

oh i just saw you other thread, if your willing to pay 300 for a DP you might as well pay the 25-50 to get to leeds and get them to fit a custom DP that WILL fit for a 100 notes
