Hi Guys,
New to the forum here. I need some help with my wife's car. 2016 Tiguan 4motion TDI
The other week a check engine light came on. So I bought a scanner to check out what the code was. I did not have any performance issues despite the check engine light on.
Here is what first came up
Codes:
P245300 - Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor 'A' Circuit - Range Performance
P047400 - Exhaust Pressure Sensor 'A' Circuit Intermittent Erratic
I check to see if the tubes going to the sensor were blocked (all clear) and also checked voltage to the sensor (all good, 5 volts)
I replaced the sensor with a new factory sensor (sensor had an F at the end instead of a G and was made in Malaysia.
I did not do an adaptation as I do not have the equipment and I did read that the new sensors do not need it. I am not sure if that is correct or not.
I cleared the vault codes.
I scanned the car again and a new code came up
P245600 - Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor 'A' Circuit - Intermittent Erratic
I cleared the code thinking maybe the ECU needs to relearn. My wife went for a 40 minute drive and when she got back the MIL was on again but with new codes
P245600 - Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor 'A' Circuit - Intermittent Erratic
P154B00 - Diesel Particle Filter Differential Pressure Sensor - Faulty.
P200200 - Particulate Trap Bank 1 - Efficiency below threshold
So that is where I am at now. Could this be because the new sensor needs to be adapted?
I should also add that on my I/M tests, I have the following still at "not ready"
NMHC Catalyst - Not Ready
NOx Aftertreatment - Not Ready
If you guys have any idea on where I should go to next please let me know.
Thanks
Paul
