Re: EPB failure

My offside has gone, always a fault when I use, but does release after an engine off/on.

Going to attempt the motor repair http://www.ukpassats.co.uk/phpbb/viewto ... 33&t=65737 tonight before shelling out for anything!

Any updated guidance??

Testing injectors with VCDS

Hi all,

Has anyone an idiots guide to testing injectors with VCDS? I have irregular white smoke, but already had a new turbo so don't think it's that.

Intermittent won't start but turns over. 2.0TDi

Next problem! I have an 09 CBAB 2.o TDi. 72k. Had balance shaft done, and new turbo (Both before failure). Twice in the last (approx) 200 starts, it just turns over freely, with no hint of actually starting. After about 20 seconds of pressing the start, it eventually lumbers up and starts. No error ...

I got that response at first, but if you say you need a replacement hex key, they'll ask your VIN number and magically they know!

Re: 58 plate CR140, CBAB balance shaft misc parts & torque specs

Apparently 100mm was only CBAB made 2010 on, or so they told me. And they were correct that my 09 was 77mm.

Re: Balance shaft - KMB or ZEDPerformance?

Had my KMB one put on this morning.For info, here are the new one, and the one that came off mine. Even though it was a precautionary thing, you can see some wear on mine even though it's only done 68k.

Balance shaft - KMB or ZEDPerformance?

I'm going to have my oil pump done as advised by many here, but there seem to be 2 decent options, KMB and ZEDPerformance. Just had new turbo under warranty (dealer used car one) so willing to have a punt! KMB is exchange with remanufacturing, but ZED performance claims to be German imported new par...

Yep, found an Audi Master Tech who will do the KMB fix as soon as the dealer has finished with it.

Re: Annoying engine noise

Lol. Ok well good. Now is also time to get out the warranty documents, then read every line and every word. There will be exclusions in cover for things like wear items, educate yourself for your impending discussion when the garage finds the issue, in case you need to argue about parts and bills a...

Re: Annoying engine noise

Dealer (Nissan) service manager listened, drove and had it on ramps last night. No immediate ideas, but the noise is definitely pinpointed and they've booked it in for further investigation under warranty, with courtesy car. He's also aware of the Oil Pump issues, but is fairly confident this isn't ...

Drive it in, get the service manager, stand him in front of open bonnet, make sure he listens, point out its under warranty still, ask him what hes going to do about it.
I'll try tonight. Unfortunately it's a Nissan Main Dealer, and a Nissan Warranty, so not over confident!

Re: Annoying engine noise

No oil warnings at all yet.

I thought CBAB was safe from oil key issues?

Done 16k since February in it with no issues besides this noise!

It's in warranty, but how can I approach the garage with these possibilities without any actual faults?
