He's also had a new MAF sensor recently too.

Okay thanks for the supply, is there a way to clean the vanes with turbo in situ or does it need to come out?

How successful would a clean be or is it more likely to need a full re-condition or replacement?

Also is there any other common causes that could be checked/tested for overboost ?

Posting on behalf of a friend, he has a 2005 Audi A4 2.0tdi BLB engine. He had the dreaded EGR and shudder valve fault which both parts have been replaced he now gets code p0244 turbo overboost We have checked the car over and have found a small leak between the manifold and EGR, this is due to not ...

Just a quick one guys, my car feels lumpy on idle but more so when cold can feel the car shaking slightly, could this be a cause of the swirl flap oil leak issue I have going on? Or are these engines known to be slightly lumpy on idle. It is more you can feel the car shake when idling and it's quite...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but does anyone know the part number of the suitable cast manifold? Mine is leaking and it's going to need a repair, what sort of cost should I be looking at ?

Looking for a torque ratchet bar, which do you guys recommend

Can anyone give rough costs? I've been doing abit research and it seems the inlet manifold is all plastic and seems to be expensive.

Does that need changing with the actuator which is what they originally have said that the actuator is leaking .

Further to my thread about the p0299 fault I have it has had the solenoid changed with no result. However it was back in today and the swirl flap actuator is leaking oil and now needs replacement could this be the culprit of my fault code or could it just be another fault which needs sorting anyway?...

That's great thanks, it's mainly due to advice I was given about the dog guard which I've started another thread for. They said it had gaps in the side to allow for the air bag, and on first inspection of the car it didn't look like air bags were in that area.

Thanks for the diagram

Can anyone tell me if the curtain air bags cover the side boot windows of the b6 estate?
Does any one have a diagram of airbag activation diagram to show where they inflate to

Any of you b6 estate owners have dogs? I'm looking for a tighter fitting dog guard which would Cover from window to window in the boot, I had purchased the "car specific" travall dog guard however this still left large gaps that my King Charles could fit through

Recommendations welcome

How many miles do you guys get when fuelling up say £30 on the clock it says I get 235 miles seems fairly low on a good run I can get 260 at best with that amount, also mines the 170 tdi sport

Which air filters do you guys recommend ?

Is it worth paying for k&n and do they actually aid performance at all ?

Do you recomend the Thule over the westfalia or do you not have experience of that type? Also looking on the indespension site is the THULE badged as BRINK

Looks very neat didn't you fit yourself ?

That's great I'll keep an eye on this glad it's no an issue then

Herd this several times now it sounds like a motor moving noise somewhere near the glove box when reversing ?

Any ideas what it is or what should happen?

Can anyone recommend custom fitting rubber car mats for the m6 estate. Looking for a good quality set as I use my car for work as a sparky and also for kayaking so it gets a lot of dirt and water off my feet As a side note does anyone have recommendation for good quality seat covers to protect my li...

Hello so update, car went into limp mode again today twice, called garage and they had a look this afternoon, it is indeed the same fault so will now be booked in next week for repair, he checked they vacuum and said that was okay so it could be the boost controller? Does this sound correct I don't ...

Also do you have a link to the Thule towbar you have fitted? Did you fit the kit yourself and does it come with the electric kit?

If so does your electric kit power the fridge etc on caravans? Or would this be an additional kit

Sorry to be a pain Ian it possible to see it on the car? I'm trying to vision if that would suit my needs when fitted with a westfalia

I've just looked on the link you provided, shows no known recalls for my VIN, does that mean they are most likely been carried out?

Unlike the look of the next base, do you know of that can be hardwired or Is it just with the power lead? I mean I realise the lead could be cut and wires in permanently but does it come with a harness for doing so? Quite confident with the wiring as I'm an electrician

Any link should for a recommended unit ?

That would be great please let me know
