    Problematic A3 2004 2.0 TDi BKD Engine

    Just said id update on this if it he's got the problem sorted after plenty of testing. main specialists couldn't figure out but went to a polish lad and he found the no.4 injector was gone. Car was running smoothly until another problem went. not sure if your still fixing it but just said id update

    Dream's really can come true
