Sounds a little different to my problem, I would check your in tank fuel pump is working. I'm not sure if VCDS will show a glow plug problem?

Nice pdf, thanks! I'm going to assume that as I can't buy a non return valve it must be a non wearing part. I might just take the pump apart and give everything a clean up. Can't hurt. Also I have a set of injector seals sitting here so I might throw them in at the same time. After that, if...

Hello everyone. I'm seeking advice from anyone with experience on a 2.0tdi 170 BRD fuel non return valve / check valve. I think mine has a problem because if the car sits for a day or two then I have to crank it for a long time to get her started. Also when her nose is pointing uphill when I...

I got that problem!!! Wasn't a massive issue though, I just tapped out the block a size larger and used a metal lathe to machine the other end. Set me back a few hours running around finding and machining parts but certainly no deal breaker

So I completely the cam belt, auxiliary belt, water pump and and all tensioners and pulley change the other day. I'm not a mechanic but I'm pretty handy and it took me just a touch over a day from start to finish. Only problem I faced was the cam belt tensioner pulley stud had stripped the...

I was thinking of putting b8 seats in my B7, as you’ve done it I assume the mounting points are all the same then?

My B7 is getting old and the outer weather strips have failed. I was chasing replacements from someone breaking but they only sell the doors complete.... I did manage to find someone who was willing to separate, whom I paid, but when he went to remove them said it was too hard and refunded my...

It's actually this video that gave me the confidence to tackle the job. Doesn't seem all that difficult really. Is there some pretty important and prone to failure hex bolt or something that I should consider replacing? Bad description I know but I can only vaguely remember reading something on it.

Hi everyone, I am about to undertake a cambelt change on my car. In the process I will be changing the alternator v belt and pulleys also. Apart from all belts and pulleys as well as the water pump is there anything I should be taking this opportunity to change now? Aside from this I will be...

Much appreciated. Thanks. Think I'll give it a go

Thankyou very much for that! Did you have to reset the injector timing afterwards?

Excellent! Any tips or tricks you can share?

Thanks for the reply, I'm leaning towards injector seals, looks like a ***** of a job though. The only difference for me is no significant amount of oil in the fuel filter.

Hi Mario, did you ever get to the bottom of this issue? I have the exact same symptoms.
