Adjuster switch on dash

Mine does not seem to be working. What do i need to check to find the fault?

TIA

I will have a good look this weekend coming, but there is no hissing and no boost leaks and certainly no pipes blown off. Definately coming from around the intercooler, just need good light to find out where and how.

Thanks for the reply, I initially drained it and there was about half a cup full come out when drained - tonight when i looked on the floor it was it was about the size of a saucer on the floor, nothing before that, it just suddenly appeared this aft.

Hi guys just a bit of an update.... I did the above and emptied the intercooler pipe at the bottom and all was fine until today, came back from a 15min ride out, went to go to the shops again in it this evening and noticed alot of oil on the floor from the intercooler pipes again, but alot worse. We...

thanks again guys, where does this seal go?

Thanks mate, just makes a bloody mess on the drive is all, just wondered if i could seal it or would the oil just keep building up?

Hi, I have a leak coming from the passenger side front at the bottom from a plastic pipe assuming this is from the intercooler. My question is, is there meant to be oil in that area and if so can i reseal this pipe and no build up of oil will cause any damage?

Thanks in advance

Thank you found them, for about a tenner - but they need programming, do you know how much it costs roughly?

Cant seem to find these transmitters on Ebay only empty key fobs with a blank key - No guts inside!

Hi, does anyone know where the sensor is for central locking on 2004 passat 1.9TDI PD.

I have to get right upto the car for the key fob to work and thats with new battery. Just wanted to see if the sensor is full of muck?!?!

Thanks

Hi, my door is clunking fairly loudly when opening and closing. I have noticed there is a bolt missing and this is causing the hinge to clap back on it self. Does anyone know the size of the bolt? i.e length and M size for thread matching?

No idea but I'm doing it any way as it's done 150k

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows were to drain the gear box oil from and we're to refill? 1.9 tdi pd 100. Thanks

If I put my foot on the throttle, it makes the sound as soon as i lower the revs and take make foot slowly off the the throttle the noise goes. Its definitely a loud tapping, ticking noise..... Yous should be able to hear it on the video i posted above...

There is some way the moisture is getting into the light unit. If it was bout from VW and moisture is getting in then the units are faulty and not sealed correctly.....Take them back and get some others and if they are faulty they obviously have a bad batch and needs looking into.

No it doesn't happen when rolling down a hill in neutral - dont think its anything serious as there is no lack of power or smoke. Its just bloody annoying! I will slowly start to take it apart until it stops lol...

Yeah I have taken the engine cover off, but the housing around the air filter seems loose and flimsy, not sure if that would make the racket that its making though!?! I can only really listen to it when im driving but when im stationary it does not happen even with revs.

might need to turn it up a bit

No loss of power or any smoke any where - will have a look at the turbo after the weekend

It's only when it's under load and going through the gears, it gets faster as the more revs I use and does not get louder. Like a really fast ticking. Remember the sound of a lollipop stick in your bike spokes as a kid. That's what it's like but louder.

Hi, wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I have a vw passat 1.9 tdi pd estate 2004. I keep getting a loud rattling noise only when under load and sounds like it's coming from the driver side, I have checked the belly panel and removed it. It only started when I serviced all the...
