    Replacing dipstick tube

    I broke the top of the tube when I was doing the same. As you probably know by now it has 2 screw hold down points, and is an interference fit inside the upper oil pan. However when I did the repair, I was able to remove the tube, cut it cleanly just up from the bottom bolt hold down, and just...

    I reviewed the description. And I'll see myself out the door. Thanks for your time.

    My version of a DPK of the CP4.

    Appreciate your input. And I ask, does a DPK from whitbread save anything more? I’ve viewed the flow from the cp4 and that such, I believe it stil circulates to the injectors and all elements up at the engine..

    My version of a DPK of the CP4.

    Brain storming of ideas of a disaster prevention kit on our Q5 that is currently down for valley reseal and related activities. On previous CPNB of family members car we used a whitbread kit and the metering valve. On this other car I'd like to use a small mic fuel filter on the return to tank...

    Recently bought 2012 VW JSW TDI, and i have questions.

    check out tunezilla, once you have the dongle to tune the car, it can be used on other cars to be tuned. That's what sent me that direction. I have / will have multiple VAG platforms, and will be tuned. They have and can build custom tunes if needed. I've been down that road, and they did well...

    2010 Sportwagen TDI Brakes on 2006 Jetta TDI Sedan?

    The sportwagen has the larger rotors and caliper brackets, so it will be an upgrade. It is noticeable. I do it on just about all of the sedans that live at my house and family. It is also the same setup that's on a GTI of the same generation. And the MK6 GTI brakes.

    Rear Main Seal Assembly Replace

    Are you using the special tool for setting the timing? I thought it provided the needed depth of the tone ring.

    hello i just bought a audi Q5 tdi plus can yall answer a few questions i have

    Shouldn’t need a block heater. But I don’t know the temps you are thinking. I’ve started ours in 20* f no problem. Dipstick is not there, it’s just a plug. Oil level can be checked via the MMI. Can’t remember what fuse for the cig.

    Bad experience with ProfiDiesel. Any one else?

    I had a similar poor experience with the company. Ordered, money sent, no parts shipped, multiple messages sent, ZERO replies. No part ever received, and luckily only out about 75 $usd.

    P0638 and Air Regulator Flap/Throttle body Valve

    There’s a relay that makes the PRNDL flash. And can result in a no start situation. Can’t remember what one.

    05.5 Jetta BRM no start

    Go back over everything that you touched, make sure it’s plugged in. Might be the ASV or something not plugged in. Don’t know what the p0670 code is. Could it be related to that?

    Sunroof Leaks- What am I missing?

    You could get PPF film in a strip and put it around the sunroof seal. Bridging the area between the paint and glass. Or just a large piece of PPF to cover it all.

    BRM Radiator Fan Issue

    Odd that the output test triggered the fans. Have you looked at the data on what the ECU sees for engine temps?

    New camshaft, no codes but torsion value way out of range

    Did you check the timing via VCDS before the cam? If not, it was off before you took it apart. A new belt will require the torsion to be adjusted. Adjust it and monitor via VCDS and move on with life.

    Q5 no start - no pressue from the HPFP after checking fuel metering valve

    Thanks for updating. Who did you send them to for testing? and have you considered the whitbread cp4 disaster kit when it all goes back together?

    Mobil Delvac 1 ESP 5w40 Safe to Use?

    I don't think it is. You need to be using a 5w-30 oil for the Q5.

    EGR delete differences

    I’ve even found the off the shelf thin exhaust block off plates to eventually leak. I made my own with 3/8 or 1/2 steel, courtesy of a plasma cutter. And also I haven’t recently found the egr and asv delete race pipes available. Didn’t head to the dark web, but went far and wide on the web. Asv...
