Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Cheers mate. Yeh definitely.

Does anyone know where the two temperature sensors on the engine are? My mechanic compared data he took from a golf Tdi and noticed a temperate never matched. He knows there's two temp sensors on the engine but is having difficulty finding it. Anyone have a clue?

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Hey guys, another update. Not a good one unfortunately. Got the acuator fixed, which was pretty knackered anyway, but still have this issue. I've now relised that the car works fine and boosts properly (full Rev range in all gear) until the car gets up to temperate. Then it starts going flat in high...

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Getting the turbo acuator fixed today. A friend looked at it and believes that's the problem. Fingers crossed for today!

Next plan is a remap. Anyone in Scotland, Glasgow area have any recommendations? I've been looking at Celtic Tuning.

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Another update, Took it too revo. Really helpful guys in there. They out it on their diagnostic kit and no errors were coming up. No readings for the dfc either! Thought it was removed and maybe the software wasn't. They need to take it in for a day to have a proper look tho. Think it might be the a...

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

A bit of an update.. I got the pipe replaced, and although it make a slight difference, it's not fixed the problem. Again, just before 4k, it's is as though uve hit the red line. Now however, I can lay off the accelerator and still keep it in the same gear, as opposed to it going complete flat previ...

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Thanks for the replies guys. A friend who's really great with cars believes one of the boost pipes is damaged. Possibly cracked, nothing major thankfully! Getting it on a ramp this week to get it fixed. Will update with good news later this week...I hope!

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TDI help

Yeh been like that since I bought it. That's what I thought but then a friend, who's very much into his cars, drove and found it really strange. The power loss happeneds at different revs in different gears. I would presume if it was normal then they would all be around the same... I'm going down to...

The car doesn't cut out, it just stops accelerating even tho I have my foot down. It happends in all gears except the first. 4th I can o...
