Hi All,
I have owned my 56 plate A3 S Line 2.0 TDI for 2 and a half years now, and for the past year or so I have noticed something. One day I will get in it and drive away and it will feel slightly sluggish than normal and like it takes a bit more effort to get going, bit like its choking ever...
Over the last few weeks now and again the car wont start will do a slow chug chug with about a second in between a chug and then I usually turn ignition off turn back on and she starts fine. Then other day pulled up at my mates for 5 minutes and then tried to start her and she wouldn't, even...
Anyone know of any reputable companys/people doing remaps at reasonable price around these areas?
56 plate 140 BKD engine with 190k on the clock! Just had a new turbo so should be fine right? Not looking to boot her round everywhere just after the extra power and torque for when I need it. Shes...
Thanks for advice guys, feared it may have been that.
Will try the K seal, however says I have to put the full 256ml bottle in which I fear will take the coolant well over the max line, anyone know how much is between the min and max line?
2.0 TDi 2006, BKD engine.
Been getting the coolant light on dash for a few months but just ignored as coolant level was at max, however past month lots of white smoke out the back on start up and thats wether its a hot or cold start but as soon as you set off non at all, but if leave it to idle...
For past 2/3 months Ive been getting the coolant light on the dash but yet when I check the coolant its inbetween the min and max just under the max line, also recently when starting the engine a bit of white smoke comes out and rought idle for about 20 seconds. Anyone any ideas why the light...
So I took my car to the garage for the turbo to be cleaned and got it back and gone for a drive, driving to the redline for a bit and then took it up a steep hill and yet again turbo cut out and gone into limp mode, however the siren noise has now stopped.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks
Found plenty of threads on the whole Mr Muscle turbo cleaning thing but non for my engine and therefore I have no idea where I should be putting the stuff and I am desperate to try this as I'm pretty sure this will solve a lot of my issues.
Anyone with any images or descriptions for this...
Thanks, I understand the process but cant find any on a A3 2.0 TDI, and therefore I have no idea where I am actually putting the stuff.
Am I putting it down the pipe you can see unattached in this pic? As it is quite a few locations on different engines.
Thanks
Yeh 2.0 TDI, I only do 8,000 or so miles a year, how much roughly would a new clutch and flywheel set me back? Also anyone know any good remaping companys north west area, decent price, maybe currently has offers on?
Don't really want to get to into it but basically I purchased a 56 plate S Line which I thought had 77k on the clock but a few weeks ago realised I had been conned and in fact has over 180,000! Absolutely gutted as I have saved up a long time for it and wanted a relatively low mileage one so...
