    Hoping for a little help

    the cable you want is a VCDS cable and is 100% worth it and 100% needed if you're going to go for tuning and starting to diagnose. Took me about a week to get mine and has helped completely. Whoever you go with for tuning (I recommend a guy that goes by burpod on these forums currently finishing...

    Poor fuel economny need to know where to start

    yes you're completely right that is where smoke goes. my lmm has a small puff of smoke that lasts less than 2 seconds and clears up. it has the best tunes in all of Canada on it in my opinion. tuner is well known and does an excellent job. in my eyes should only be smoke if its actually wanted...

    Poor fuel economny need to know where to start

    Would the larger 11mm pump and the nozzles make that much of a difference though ? and would would explain the decrease of at least 100 kms per tank since a year ago is also what i am trying to get at as well. Yes it is about 430 kms from full as it goes to light on. I do see black smoke...

The PO never...

    Poor fuel economny need to know where to start

    I am kinda new to the Tdi world and am trying to learn things especially around the vcds software now getting more and more involved. I haven't been experiencing good fuel economy at all. I am currently getting roughly 700 KM to a tank and in my eyes that is horrible. Since i got the car 1 year...

    Glow plugs and cold

    It starts and runs great. It just take a bit to turn over. However after running with that sensor unplugged and letting the glow plugs run the full cycle it fires up like a brand new car every time first or second crank. I would however like to check and get timing adjusted as I'm not sure when...

    Glow plugs and cold

    Glow plugs and cold

    Ohhh very good note there I did not know there was two. Do you happen to have a part number for the ecu one ? I mean it makes sense by the gauge reading is all I was going off of. Not perfect but it looks right anyway ..

    Glow plugs and cold

    So I have narrowed my issue down a little of my glow plugs. My issue is that the glow plugs don't run near long enough and the car cranks a long time before starting. Normal it would run for 4 or 5 seconds and crank shorter and then start but still a longer crank then it should be. Now (very...

    Climate control

    Having the mechanical connection going from the tempature switch to the part it goes to how would I change this part out ? I can't find a name or anything on this part and it looks like I can't even see how it would come out if it's even possible without pulling the dash ? Right now it's stuck...
