Hi everyone
So a little bit of backstory , about 12 months I got a cambelt fitted and it has always been hard to start after that ! Couldn't get the guy to fix it again so I look on vag com and see that the torsion reading is -4 degrees and idle fuel consumption is about 1.1L/h ( I've read it should be 0.6L/h )
When I looked at injector reading one did seem higher than the rest .... Is it worth running cleaner through the tank ?
So I change the inlet cam to give a value of -0.35 and the start straight away seems much better and I read that I should also adjust the exhaust cam to get 0.6l/h but I keep adjusting it back and it hardly changes ! Keep going until the engine starts misbehaving and even got a tapping at one point .... So I've now left this set back at 1.1L/h
Now as I drive the car the power seems really reduced ... It used to have a very sharp period of acceleration now seems very dull...
(Engine is BKD 2.0tdi 170)
Could anybody help me out with this ?
Cheers !
Rhys
