Re: N75/PCV - Lumpy Idle

Just an update guys, looks like I spoke to soon! Basically it was the injector that caused the problem. But when they replaced it the lumpy idle wasnt completely fixed. So they looked deeper, took the head off to have a look inside the engine for any damage. They said the injector has been spraying ...

Re: Extended Warranty

This is true, it does mention about no modifications though... I would assume they wont be happy but just wondered if since it's provided by a 3rd party then they might have to give more evidence to provide the repair. I'm always worried about things like this, if they say no and I decide to do the ...

Does anyone know whether with the extended warranty they will look a...

Re: N75/PCV - Lumpy Idle

Yer I've had a good read through and was really helpful when I checked the plugs before Christmas :) Awesome, I'm picking up some parts from TPS in stockport on Saturday (full engine undertray and aerodynamic cover for underside) so will be over that way then. Do you think you could lend a hand/have...

Re: N75/PCV - Lumpy Idle

Thanks RW1, that picture is perfect! I know its probably not the cause but worth ruling out. Its hard to get vw to take a rough idle seriously, but if it is injectors id like them to be paying for it! Think I read somewhere you're up in/near cheshire? Or did I just imagine it?! I'm up that way in kn...

N75/PCV - Lumpy Idle

Hi all, I was hoping someone could help me out here. I've got the 1.4 TSI but in the MKV golf (pretty much the same as in the Roc though). Is the N75 valve the PCV? I havnt heard anyone actually link the two but im pretty sure the N75 is the PCV? Reason being my lumpy idle is still around and seems ...
