So...what are the symptoms that anyone has seen with worn nozzles on a TDI engine. I have a friend in the area that has a car...not sure of how many miles are on the nozzles. But... on cold start he gets smoke and a stutter under revving and also on initial start off...as soon as things "clear out" its fine. You can feel this stutter under cold accel /load as well. peg it and after some smoke it cleans out... and eventually disappears...until shut down again and letting it sit for a while...
Smoke isn't blue... more of a grayish/bluish tinge. Injection timing is on, doesn't use oil (or doesn't seem to), intake is clean, etc.
The stutter was the give away to me...that things didn't sound healthy in the injectors themselves...
