  • Hi there. I have a faulty EDC/ which stopped the injector pump from working. on a 2.5 v6 a4 2003. Diesel bob is the guy to recon that but I cannot find a mechanic to remove and refit and ensure its set up. can you help? based in West Midlands. I am able to arrange the vehicle to be sent for the work.
    can you help?

    Hope you are doing ok Chris, you are missed amongst a load of people who know you to be an honest top bloke, hope things are going well for you and the family, regards Dr Sadiq

    hello chris, you are highly recommended on this site, I have some tuning issues with a special project ive built with a 2.5 TDI BFC engine in a military vehicle and wondered if I could bother you with them, cheers, dave
    I don't know him personally, but I can tell from his posts that he is an honest person. He probably got caught up in Romania and it will probably take a while until he gets back. But I'm sure he'll be back. I need him too :with an 2.5 tdi)
    Just a heads up...Chris has disappeared since taking a £500 deposit off me for work he was to carry out on my A4 cab. From what I can gather he's back in Romania so just be very wary about sending any money over should you manage to get in touch with him. If you do manage to get in touch can you please forward the details of the method you managed to contact him on.

    Cheers

    Hi Chris, I spoke you to back in November regarding VWgolf 58 plate, that needs a cam belt and water pump change. Was slightly busy at the time and couldn't arrange to bring it in. I got a bit more time now and would like to bring it in to have it change; When are you available to make this change? Can you ping me back with your contact number please. Thanks Alex

    Hello Chris, Would there be any chance I could contact you? I'm having problems with my Audi 2.0tdi 170bhp 2007 car.
    I've already taken it to a local mechanic and he is having problems finding the issue with it stalling.
    Thx Tony

    hi,sorry to hassle you,as far as i can tell you are the only person to have done what i´m halfway through.
    a 1.9tdi(afn motor into a b5 2.5 tdi long story short i had a 98 a4, 1.9 great engine, rust, rust free 2.5 q avant, but 500,000 kms, oil leak from one of the heads and due belts and pump. what do i need to do to connect the engine harness to the car

    adamss24
    You need to swap engine wiring loom and code the clock set to a 4 cyl...

    andrew field
    cheers, I installed the motor compete with engine loom, the white plug not compatible and the red has the wires laid out differently. as i have a complete donor car i decided to swap the loom behind the dash that plugs into the engine harness and the clocks, key chips. theory being its a guaranteed success. how did your conversion drive by the way? and did you use both intercoolers??
    Hey man, I was hoping I could get some advice. I own a 2001 C5 AKE that needs cams, rockers, etc. I've found a set of used roller heads with solid cams for 700euros. Not sure of the engine code but they are stamped 059L. I could send you pictures if you'd like.
    Should i get these roller heads, or go with the kolbenschmidt kit for roughly the same money?
    I'd bring my ride to you, but I don't live in the uk
    A
    adamss24
    I would fit new cam roller heads if I were you however they are not bullet proof with the hollow cams. It makes sense to just get the koblenshmidt cam kit as it doesn't involve ripping the engine apart and you save on head gaskets, head bolts and the like...you end up spending a lot more than you anticipated when you decide to rebuild as opposed to just swapping a whole engine in ! Hope this helps! Regards,
    Chris
    Hello Adam. Just wandering if I could ask a question about a vp44 diesel pump?
    After reading about the pumps and their faults, I'm Looking at an inspection, rebuild and replacement ecu. If the ECU is replaced, can it plugged back in or does it need some sort of coding? If so, Is this a difficult job and how much might it likely cost?
    I'm in south west wales so can you recommend any good guys?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi there, to do a good job I would say get someone like dieselbob to fully rebuild your injector pump. The pump wears internally and sometimes it's better value for money to rebuild entirely !
    Hi adamss24 i have a 2002 audi a4 2.5tdi aym which needs the cam belts doing+stat+pump how much would it be to do this job if you can. many thanks in advance
    Hi Chris, im in a bit of a situation here..would you be available at some point this week to do a cambelt job on A6 AKE? Front will be off, coolant drained and ready to access the belts. I got the parts ready too, Contitech belts etc, just picking up a water pump tomorrow morning in Leatherhead. I live in Reigate RH2 8QZ. Many thanks, Isaac Marques

    Hi Adamss24, don`t know if you remember me I sold you a black audi a4 2.5tdi Quattro avant a few years back now, it was on W reg(2000) full black leather, had the SRE racing clutch fitted also !

    Just need some advice on another audi a6 2.5tdi Quattro I have with 180 hybrid and PP683 nozzles, If you dont mind giving me a call on 07533607417 to have a quick chat at your convenience.
    Thanks
    Dear Adamss24. I hope you don't mind me contacting you:) I am a new member, a few hours. I have a beloved audi 2.5 tdi b5 c2000 that has a broken injector pump. I am wondering is it possible to fit a sh pump to these, or even fit an edu to my original pump? BTW it went on the way from an expensive MOT

    adamss24
    You can get the same part number pump and swap it over- no programming required. Please read how to set engine and pump at tdc as to avoid prolonged cranking which will kill the starter...

    Hello.

    Long story short, I have ** my injection pump. I currently have the AFB engine with AFB ecu. Does an injection pump from AKE will fit and work on my car?

    Regards from Romania,
    Paul
    A
    adamss24
    The AKE ecu is different however early pre 2000 injector pumps on AKE were without the extra immobiliser in the ECU and worked without requiring programming however i dont know if they work as a swap on AFB engine with the old MSA15 ecu. I used AKE pumps with AFB ecu without bother on tuned projects but that's another story ! Regards,

    hi - I would be over the moon if I could speak to you regarding my 05 2.5 v6 tdi (BDG ENGINE 100,000 miles) its had a full recon injection pump,.. it does run but pours out with white smoke and just doesn't sound well when its idling. injectors have been checked and are ok, compression is ok. timing has been checked and apparently its ok?? dunno what to do now..
    Hi, thanks for your reply.
    i am not after huge power, am after a nice drive in a "sensible" car, my car is the 2.5tdi quattro, with god know what engine that's apparently been reconditioned.
    What sort of prices am I looking at for a once over and a remap?
    A
    adamss24
    Hi, no problem, just bring it over and i will give it a remap and a once over for you. It will cost you £200... Thanks !

    Is there any chance I can give you a ring and discuss this, and the option available? ,Where abouts in London are you?
    A
    adamss24
    Hi, as per our conversation, please get your car to me to read the map and see how much fuel i can get from the pump so i can tune your map as per your hardware. As i mentioned i offer 4 stages of power ranging from 200 Bhp up to 400 Bhp ! So if it's s4 performance with diesel economy you're after then i am your man ! Regards,
    Chris
    hello adamss can you send me your map from audi a4 1.9 plees help my address bezvezebee8@gmail.com
    I would like to speak to you about my current project I'm planning (A3 TDI QUAT BMN). As it stands now I'm putting in a GT2260+shortmanifold+S3 fmic +4 bar MAP. If you could give me a price for it that would be great, Nick

    Hi Chris how much for a rear crank seal on 2.5tdiquattro cheers jon
    A
    adamss24
    Hi Jon, are you sure the crank seal is leaking ? Had many, many v6 and the crank seal was still good even with high mileage engines. I would say about £250 labour. It's a good thing to do clutch and flywheel at the same time...
    Chris i need my timing belt doing easter time could you let me know how much and also what sort of time scale you need the car for ?
    Satty (Leeds)
    Hi Chris,
    I need to replace the timing belt on my Audi A4 2.5 quatro sport 04. I've been searching on the net as well as getting quotes from local garages & came across one of your post from Jan13.
    I generally repair my car myself but cannot do this one. Could you please let me know if you still provide this service? If so, how much would you charge and when could it be done? Thanks
    Hi did you get my post, what price are you looking for the set

    Hi, sorry, just seen the post. £250 for a set of 6 injectors... The needle lift sensor on it's own sells for over 150 quid as it's quite a common failure...
    Hello, just joined saw your emails, can you advise where I can get the standard nozzles for a 2.5 tdi 180 hp 2004 allroad DSLA142P925, thanks for the help

    adamss24
    Hi, do you need new or used nozzles will do ? I have a couple of sets of injectors... Regards,
