    ALH smoke machine only in neutral?

    usually under load I get no smoke at all, it’s just weird cause it’s like a switch is flipped and it’s just there. I’ll have to try to get a video, it’s the weirdest thing

    ALH smoke machine only in neutral?

    Turbo is a few months old, it’s a powertdi gtd2060 with .260 injectors and a 11mm pump. It has a burpod tune. He just messaged asking for a log at idle so I’ll see in a bit what he says.

    ALH smoke machine only in neutral?

    Was trying to diag a no boost issue I was having. I had pulled a vaccum on the actuator to see if the tone changed. Turns out the actuator had broken but I got it fixed now. But the smoke stayed. I don’t know how long it’s been like that because I’ve never just like set there and revved it.

    ALH smoke machine only in neutral?

    There is no egr, and it stops smoking when rpm’s rise above 3000 or go below 2800. EGTs don’t increase with the smoke but then again it’s only in neutral so there’s barely any cylinder pressure since there’s no load. I’ll pull the injectors and check.

    ALH smoke machine only in neutral?

    Hello!! My Alh has a very weird issue. If I’m in neutral and rev the car to around 2800-3000 rpm it starts absolutely dumping out white smoke from the tail pipe. It smells like diesel not oil or coolant. The weird thing is in gear there’s absolutely no smoke at all. Does this sound like an...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    Well I don’t know. I’ve replaced just about everything you can replace. New injectors, injection pump, lift pump, fuel filter, brakes, wheel bearings, a/c compressor, alternator. I’ve even replaced the turbo. Still won’t get off of around 30 mpg. Now I did replace the turbo with a GTD2060 but...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    The pump is from the bew engine. So it’s for the tdi just not the ve. It’s been in there for over a year now and I haven’t had any troubles with it or the injection pump. I did swap to the 11mm pump a few months ago and never got around to resealing it. So now I do have a fuel leak from I think...

    BIG turbo checklist?

    Hello all. I just recently purchased a GTD2060VR turbo for my 01 Alh and wanted to make sure I’ve got everything ready before it’s here. So the turbo inlet is 3in, I’m looking for a new intake or intake pipe to replace the factory plastic one that goes to the turbo as it’s too small. Does anyone...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    This swing as been constant for 4 months. It was a drastic swing down that stayed down for months. And then just as it went down it came back up. But again I don’t know for sure if the fuel economy was what I really calculated since it has only been one tank of fuel.

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    That wouldn’t make sense for my issue, as I was getting 50-60 mpg for 3 months when I first got the car then it randomly dropped for the last 4 months or so. And you would really only get a low reading once since the fuel could only foam so much. I was/am getting consistently 28-32 mpg for the...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    Every time I fill up I go till it clicks then put it on the lowest speed till it clicks again. And that’s all it gets. I then do the same thing when I fill up and divide by the miles I drove. I also use the exact same fuel station every time I fill up. And even when I use a different on I was...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    I don’t know for sure since that was the first time ever driving that route, but before driving to Oklahoma at 85 mph I was getting about 62 mpg. But that was a more flat drive will only a few hills. And the a/c wasn’t on for that drive. So all in all I think it is similar now to when I got it...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    Well here’s a little update for anyone wondering. Today I went down to Texas and back about 700 miles round trip. And as fast as the issues started they all the sudden stopped. Got almost 50 mpg that tank doing 80-85 mph up and down hills the whole way. Filled up that morning before leaving and...

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    I changed the lift pump about 2 weeks ago, the fuel economy issue has been going on for about 2 months. I changed it because I thought it might have been going bad. There was one installed when I got it but at that point it could get 40-50 mpg pretty easily.

    Terrible fuel economy, need help

    Figured I’d update anyone that wants to know, I have installed my 11mm pump and burpod sold me some .260 injectors. I’m waiting for the injectors then we’re going to try to get a tune on and see if that increases my fuel mileage. I’ll keep this thread updated to see how the new pump, injectors...
