Mk4 golf tdi bew vnt17
My tdi is experiencing low fuel economy, 32 mpg in the past ive gotten 40mpg with a 2 bar map and vnt17 turbo.
Ive gotten a check engine light with intermittent excess fuel in the exhost and when i looked at my egr it was gunked up so i cleaned it. I was wondering if my problem a dirty intake or bad fuel injectors. Listed below will be my readings.
Mas air flow 300 mg/str
Boost pressure 1020 actual and specified. It runs about 7-10 psi at 75mph and had the tune done by a shop near by. New vaccume lines and verified boost pressure and response/ sensor.

Injection
Cyl 1 -.75
Cyl 2 -1.25
Cyl 3 2.87
Cyl 4 -.85

Fuel consumption 1.8 l/h
All above is at idle

O2 sensor 3.69 at idle and 16 when cruising at 45 mpg
