Well, under further inspection, where I had cleaned the area around the hole for the sensor, I found a hairline crack, just on the edge , leading in towards the hole of the sensor.....I only noticed it after refilling the oil, and watching for any leaks. So, looks like, oil back out, clean, prepare,...

Hi there,. Ive got a 2002 1.9tdi, AVF engine passat. All was fine recently, with the help from people here, i sorted the turbo using mr muscle, that worked fine. Now, i have a leaky oil level sensor, the one that on the underneath of oil pan, opposite the sump plug. At first i was hoping it was just...

Hi there, (just realized, I'm in wrong part of forum,sorry.,, Could it get moved to the right part please, I think the B3 part.) I'm driving a 2002 1.9 TDI saloon, AVF engine Passat. She's been going great, after the turbo vane problem, which you guys helped sort out using Mr muscle, no problems. I ...

The new MOT things was on the news yesterday,. Seems theyre looking for extra excuses to take out the older type car. I think its a right liberty, i understand the reasoning, but at the same time, they have to understand (and care??), not everyone can afford a newer motor, with lovely emissions, min...

Hello again!! I trust youve been enjoying the rather rare sunshine. So, back to the sticky turbo vanes... After removing the EGR pipe, to the silver hat, and bunging it up with a tight screw, i didnt notice any more power loss. So, i was thinking to leave it at that, but ive been obsessing over the ...

Thank you so much, I'm going to do this I'm thinking Friday, so I'll be using the motorbike till then, which is always a right good blast at 5am!! I've learnt loads with this problem, and feel a lot better, I was thinking I'd have to sell/scrap the car, which would be a shame, as I really like her, ...

I've cancelled the n75, I was hoping it be a quick swap out, and I'll be going again!! I think I've got my head round the vane clean thing, so should be not too bad. Just got to double check everything, but it's all about cleaning from the other side of turbo, not as it said on some you tube vids, d...

oh,,, Ive read that its taking off manifolds, and allsorts.
Whats the EGR feed pipe?
Is that the silver metal pipe?

NOOOO!! Not the sticky vanes, ive had a look at how to do that, looks like a right pain in the butt to do. Ive still got EGR on, i would have to remove that wouldnt i? Ive orderd a fresh N75, im REALLY hoping that clears it up. Ive had a quick blat with the MAF sensor unplugged, ran terrible. Someon...

Hi there, Yes, sometimes it does go back to normal,. It was fine for nearly a week, after the new O ring. This morning its been OK, it dosent feel as responsive as it has done, like fresh after the O ring, but its not weak enough so its useless. It feels like if i floor it, it will happen again. I t...
