Hi All
My 3.0tdi CAPA engine is randomly going into limp mode
No faults logged in VCDS
It’s fine half the time, and limp mode the other half
Sometimes it also seems to misfire on startup and stall - only the last couple of days. But then full power again shortly after, and hitting full boost and full fuelling
I’ve checked the throttle body (taken apart, it wasn’t too clogged and the gear mechanism was fine when I looked inside)
I’ve chatted with desertstorm and I do get 0% throttle activation at idle whereas he has 55% - so could it the the throttle body?
I was thinking could be EGR related?
I still have the full egr system
Such a pain not having a fault logged!
Maybe I should change the throttle body assy anyway?
Any help appreciated
Many thanks
