it the BMR engine 170PS on a 57 plate car. I have put a graph together with the VCDS data showing the turbo working when driving.

Hi all,

My car has decided to play up again, it drives like there is no turbo, really sluggish and when stationary and I Rev it it won't rev over 3k even with foot to the floor! Please help this is getting very annoying.

Thanks in advance

My DPF light comes on once a week at the moment and twice I have had to use VCDS to force a re gen. The car has 179k on the clock which is over the expected life of a DPF is it not? All vacuum and boost pipes along with the turbo actuator and N75 have been tested and came back working fine. The DPF ...

Hi Richard, thank you for your post, please can you tell me how I can verify it is working correctly? I have been told by many that it is the dpf that needs clearing out, should I get this done?

Hi Guys, I have had this error come up yesterday and the car in constant limp mode.

I have measured the resistance across the terminals of the N75 valve and it says 15 ohms. which is apparently correct.

I am having trouble finding the Diverter Valve on my BMR engine so have not been able to test ...

could you please advise how I adjust this?

Hi all,

I am sure this is on here somewhere but cant find it. I think my rear wheels are off camber, I put new rear tyres on and the outer edge looks brand new but the inner edge is bold!!! this has happened in no time.

Could the camber be out? is there a way of me measuring it? What angle should ...

Hi, I am having an issue with my offside tail light where sometimes it works fine and other the outer ring won't illuminate.
After playing today I found that it does come on for 2-3seconds and then goes out as tho something is tripping it out but not sure what's inside the cluster.

Any help and ...

Hi all,

I have suddenly developed a violent shake through the steering wheel and car when braking with medium pressure from about 70mph but does not seem to happen if doing around 50mph. I have new discs and pads fitted by the garage about 13k ago, and when I last had it in the air I could not feel ...

I have unvolted the pipe from the manifold with the m10 splines but the pipe has no movement in it to pull it out the way and I can not see the other end of it. on the pictures I have seen people have not removed this pipe at the other end and so it seems there is a way to do it, I just can not work ...

Hi it is the BMR engine and it could be coming from the exhaust manifold. Just can not see anyway to get it out of the way to allow my torx in.

Hi, am trying to removee egr for cleaning but the metal pipe entering from the right is blocking one of the bolts and the pipe won't move enough, help please!!

Thanks

Hi,

I have had this twice on the passenger door and the electronic opener needs resetting, simple to do.

open the door and pull both the inside and outside door handles at the same time repeatedly, after about 10 pulls there will be a click and the handle will have resistance again and work.

Don ...

thought it might be useful to let everyone know how I got round it

Hi all, sorry for the silly question but this is driving me mad. I want to service my car myself from now on, but want to use the correct oils etc...

VW say Castrol SLX Professional Powerflow Longlife III was used in the factory but I cant really find it, only Castrol Edge. Is this the replacement ...

Update!

I did do a vcds forced regen, in about 10 miles on m1 it had cleared everything and has since driven fine!

As said above the dpf and turbo temps get to over 600 degrees which is scary but it works. If anyone is near m1 j27 and has similar issues let me know, I am willing to use my laptop ...

Hi,

I have a 2007 57 plate passat which has developed a slight clunk from the front. A quick look hints at the steering rack, when stationary if I rock my steering wheel lift to right no matter what direction the front wheels are pointing I get a clunk, both physical and audible. This is felt ...

Hi all,

I have spent hours researching this to no avail, my DPF light came on this morning but before I could get to a motorway and clear it the car went into limp mode. Normally a simply engine off and back on will rectify this but unfortunately it does not anymore.
I have taken the car down the ...

It a turbo replacement on a BMR engine a simple job? Or do I need to get the garage to do it? Midland Turbos will rebuild it for me but trying to save money where possible.

Thanks

Scott

Hi,

I can't remember the exact code but it means turbo over boost.

Hi guys,

My 57plate 170ps passat keeps going into limp mode with the flashing coil light and it is happening more often, I tried the Revive Turbo Cleaner and it made a drastic change but 20,000 miles later it is back the same. Does anyone know a good turbo specialist or somewhere reasonable to get ...

Hey Guys,

Just rang VW and they say they cant tell me without stripping it down. How can i tell what engine my 57 plate 170ps is and if i need to worry about this? Mine has done 97 k now and i am a high mileage driver so really cant afford to have it go wrong. Thanks for any advice.

I have now used the Revive cleaner, the amount of white smoke coming out of the back whilst adding the stuff was unbelievable, not to mention when i then took it for a spin. Time will tell on how succesful it has been, i will keep you updated. Please share your storys and experiences with chemical ...
