Hi guys,need your help again fellas...
My Audi A3 2.0 170tdi I have had for 7 years,always passed the MOT.. I had a recon charger fitted about 2 months ago,and this has finally cured the limp mode issue the car has had.. Now soon after the Turbo was fitted the EM light came on permanently. Its an 02 sensor... Because the car is behaveing well, plenty of power I thought i would get it MOTed then get it sorted.. The car has failed the MOT on emissions. After its warmed up and when stationary it starts to kick out light grey see through smoke.. He recons its unburnt fuel.. he says it need injectors and maybe an engine rebuild... I disagree,as it starts fine.runs smoothe, doesnt lose oil or water,but I cant deny that it is smoking... Fine on start up, fine after a blast..just when its idleing when warm.. Could it be the 02 sensors? Ive spent a lot on this car.. New cam belt/waterpump, brakes and Turbo.. Last chance saloon for the car as im not spending anymore except the sensors... The current MOT covers it til the 29th. Gutted!
