    1.6 BFQ misfire mystery

    Try swapping injector over to another cylinder, and clean the seals? I've not had an NA car for years, but vacuum is much more important - than for turbo charged cars. It still just needs fuel, air and spark at the right time.

    1.6 BFQ misfire mystery

    BFQ is a weird engine. I have just spent 10 minutes re-writing a reply.. a NA 1.6l 8 valve VAG 8L motor with a totally different ECU.. Does vcdslite work with it? When you say it's misfiring is the whole car shaking and banging. Eg is it definitely misfiring with the EML light flashing, or...

    MPG display reading....

    10% is quite a lot.. is your speedo also out by 10%? My Golf TDI speedo is out by 10% it shows 33mph when a community speed watch shoes 30mph, and my MPG shows 64mpg which I think is too high. I have tried changing tyre size to get it correct, you can do that with vcds, but that didn't help...

    Hi new to A4 2009 TDI, i expect I'll need some help here

    Hi, I have had an S3 8L AMK which i modified, then took the modifications of that and put onto a TT 8N BAM which I modified further, but that's essentially a leaning post for my prickle bushes now.. Anyway I was given my daughters 09 Golf 2.0 TDI at 165k and is at 205k now and although it...

    Charge / Turbo Pipe setup

    Turbosmart are quite expensive, but the vacuum pipe from the jungle or directly from the inlet manifold is supposed to open the DV, loads of people delete the n249 I did on my S3 and TT, it removes potential leaks etc. I assume the DV isn't venting to atmosphere like the Forge Splitter?

    Charge / Turbo Pipe setup

    The n249 is supposed to connect to the top of the DV., so when changing gear it opens the DV (apart from between 1st and 2nd if under boost), you can bypass the whole thing if you connect the inlet directly to the DV and remove 'the jungle'

    Charge / Turbo Pipe setup

    faulty EGT will put the motor into default fueling 11:1.. that needs fixing.. the extra fuel has taken out the o2 sensor or you have removed the post cat sensor but not mapped it out, I expect the n249 jungle has been removed but they also removed the electric component. What o2 sensor is it...

    Charge / Turbo Pipe setup

    As above, absolutely no idea what you are looking at, or the level of boost as that is flared hard pipe, so assuming you've clamped it correctly, if its still popping off - you may be running 35+ psi?

    XS - Power Relentless X - Pro 4 Fitting and test

    Although, you might end up like my AET Hybrid and Chinafold port matched, but impossible to get a gasket.. so (if) when I get round to sorting the clutch out, i need to remove the manifold and get it machined to enable gasket-less like the original AET-380 kits Bill@B5 used to do.

    XS - Power Relentless X - Pro 4 Fitting and test

    I think it is because the cracks on the hotside open and breaks the gasket, by pulling it apart, they normally break on the firewall side, I had a 3rd of the gasket simply fly out. if the hotside is cracked the gaskets will only last a few weeks.. i assume you're using stock stainless gaskets...

    XS - Power Relentless X - Pro 4 Fitting and test

    It's usually the hotside which is cracked, and changes shape when the EGTs get up past 1100°C and breaks the gasket. Good job with the manifold not cracking (yet) :)

    Can I clear airbag light with VCDS?

    What was the actual fault returned from vcds? Vcds (including lite) / obdeleven and vagcanpro can clear the airbag light with the exception of the 65535 code which essentially means that the software cannot communicate with the module.. if the error is like "resistance too high" is usually a...

    Advice

    What AGU parts are being used? Surely you're still using the stock AMK ECU, and they've transferred over the VVT and cam shaft sensor.. and inlet manifold, exhaust manifold and K04 turbo? And just replaced the block and head? In which case the only physical differences are missing 1mm shims...

    Dry oil cap?

    Probably need a bit more context? When did you check the oil cap? Like after 6 months sitting in the garage or 20 minutes after driving to the seaside? You can run the engine with the cap off.. if you have low oil pressure or low oil level pretty sure you'll get an alarm on the DIS..

    Narrow to Wideband

    You want an immo defeated ECU from a BAM, AMK or BFV... the BFV has a completely structure but can have a BAM map written on it (pretty sure) I think the BFV is like the BEA (225 wideband in US) regarding map structure and people unable to get an XDF for their BEA simply overwrote with a BAM...

    How to get a new Audi Radio code....

    Just buy the code off ebay, then if the code doesn't work you claim your fiver back from PayPal... pretty sure they put the code into an algorithm.. Most cars with stock radios don't need a code....
