I rechecked torsion value and it's in fact 0.0 and it moves after 30 or 40secs to +0.6 .Torsion value shouldn't be bouncing around (I've never seen it move on my BEW)
Is this normal ?
Thx

thanks a lot for your support guyTorsion value will tend flutter a bit at very high rpm due to belt stretch. I would be more concerned if the value was fixed at 0.0 and never moved, that might indicate it was stuck out of range. This one seems quite normal.
I'm pretty well out of ideas at this point...
I can't remember the exact values for each cylinder but they were all around 25bars/366psi.What was the compression when you tested it?
I like what I'm hearing. I called my mechanic today to have him change the timing. But he is on holidays for a few weeks. He purposely set it at 0.0 because this "what it should be".
If I have him try a crazy number like -4.0 right away, should I hear the loud engine noise go away, and instantly see the parked "idling L/100km" drop?
I don't believe the diesel fuel is cooled, except for the mini cooling unit under the body along the frame by the passenger door (it is a wagon). I haven't really looked into injectors, or their cost yet, but I take it from your post that I have options? I asked my service booking guy today, and he said he has no recollection of his mechanic changing injectors on a Passat like mine. I'm not looking for performance, but rather MPG. I pull a 2500# boat a few times a week in the summer months, but only on short 10 minute trips each way to the dock ramp and back home.
Thanks,
Steve.
I checked my timing also it is also 0.0Timing now set to 0.0.
In P, I have 1.0l/h, in D at idle I have 1.7l/h, these are with AC and everything else off.
Cleaned EGR and the gallery, same high fuel consumption
This is a bizarre thread. Mohamed, man, come back and tell us the rest!
The high fuel number in group zero is at idle, not dragging brakes then.
I have that too, and it ain't solved yet.
