Seals changed, car runs smooot when coldstarted now, but still a little bit jerky to start on cold engine. (wery much better than before)
I had alot of wear inside my injector holes, so that might be the reason that it dident fix it 100%, the sharp wear-edges might have done damage to the new...
Here is a okish writeup for the injectors :
BRM PD150 injector install - TDIClub Forums
Inspect for ovality as that is a problem too. (wearmarks in the hole on the opposite of the clamp...)
Well all injectors are pulled, and as i suspected the seals were worn out, hard and also the lowest seals had small damages.
On the worst cylinder in vag com, the lower seal was broken.
Will post up when reassembled.
Valve steam seals can only be checked if you pull the valve sprigs off, and its 2 ways to do that, Head off or a special tool that is tricky to use for many people. Cam must go out anyway, and timingbelt must be changed so its a large job...
just fortget them they are not your problem.
I am...
Leaking oil seals will make it smoke when running, there is no way oil will be down in cylinders on cold starts because of this if youre only using half a litre on 8k
If the oil seals are gone then your valve guides are worn out to, i have not heard of this happening on a 1.9tdi pd, they run...

But as stated earlier, my problem is leaking seals...

Yes, changing the tandem is a good idea if youre keeping the car.
But since this is 2 independent jobs, i would go for the tandem first(since you ordered it), and then the seals if it dont solves your problem.
The tricky part of injectors are like stu said, getting them out.
But also lining...
Hi, did the tandem pressure test today.
Bad news, pressure is way above limit (3-4 bars) and peaks the gauge (7 bars) on 1500 rpm.
The pressure is also uneven, the needle is pinning up and down, so it has to be related to the injectors somehow.
So if i trust my gut feeling i would say that i...
Some audis have had this funny error, hard to start, and if you turn your lightswitch fully on so that headlights are on when you start the car, then it was ok.. Solution was to change the headlight switch.
So to test this, turn your headlight switch fully on before you start the car and see if...
New glow plugs, and all are tested on cold engine out of the hole, they all glowed like stars...
My glowtime was also extended with vag com to be 100% sure that the plugs are not the issue. that was one of the first thing i checked when the problem started.
Now only one thing can make this a...
