Some would say clear the codes and see which ones come back, but coil packs and plugs are relatively cheap it's up to you. Phone your local VW dealer and see if your car has had the recall for the coil packs, if not you may get four of them free, worth a phone call. Ok will do is it a simple case o...

Ok so I scanned my car and got 8 fault codes
17705
16684
16685
16686
16687
18010
16891

So all seem to point to plugs,leads,fuel or vac leak! I did need a lead changing the other day is it best changing the other 3 and putting new plugs in?

No only have a cheap scanner!! I've done the battery of "chicken dance"'and seems to work for a short while then back again! I haven't checked all the plastic valves(are they all one way?) could it be a sensor maybe? I scan it later today and post codes if any! Problem I got the cars so lo...

Ok changed the pipe and still the same! I have cleaned the TB before bu I'll look again to be sure is it poss that it's a case of needing a TB setup?

I've got some fuel pipe same size I'll replace the whole pipe u think this would cause the issue?

And the part that links to the hard pipe is in same state?

Think this could be the one? I'll sort pics out now

Just had a quick look and found a damaged pipe! Runs from a L peace under the coolant tank into a hard pipe which gos into pass wing? It's flat in 2 parts and very worn! Doubt if any air is getting past how flat it is! I've got pics just gonna have a shower then I'll post!

Cheers lads gonna have good look tomorrow, and as for the power not fussed about it not being fast just asking how it should feel that's all!

Cheers for that m8 I'll check them later, I'll also looking into the PCV but hoping this is clear because in used on the motorway daily? Another question what should a standard 150bhp feel like? As it's never had much kick,well if it didn't have a dump valve fitted I'd swear it was a N/A lol would a...

VCDS is the best thing to scan for codes. I'd suspect a split/broken small bore vacuum pipe around the inlet manifold area. The pressure in the dipstick tube is possibly blocked breather pipes - a common issue. It's a good idea to take them off and clean them. Ok cheers I'll look at cleaning breath...

Can be anything can you or know someone to scan it for codes? Common problems are air leak, MAF, temp sensor, When were the spark plugs last changed? Yeah I've got a cheap eBay scanner I scan it later! Also noticed of cars running there pressure in the dipstick, this normal? And when I had a new ex...

Yeah
