Re: Engine knock?

Cheers Mitch, rain has stopped play for car and cricket! I see you're from Rustington, I may have laid electricity to your house. From memory Rustington had the hardest earth to dig

Re: Engine knock?

Spot on Mitch, one follower has concave top and a hole and the cam lobe is virtually gone. Ordered kit and will have to do some gardening (yuck) while waiting for delivery. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volkswagen-VW-1-9-TDi-PD-Billet-Steel-Camshaft-Kit-038109101R/113286629322?fits=Car+Make%3AVW%7CMode...

Engine knock?

Hi guys, I seem to have a problem with my 1.9 B6. It starts first flick and idles at 800rpm smoothly but I can hear the pom pom pom coming from the airfilter or turbo hoses. I did have this issue before but replaced the injectors and it seemed ok for a while. If I touch the throttle it sounds like b...

Re: New MOT rules regarding dpf (May 2018)

Hi guys, I've read all the posts with great interest. My B6 had a minor collision so I bought it back from insurers but have to MOT it within 4 weeks. I put it in on 1st May but it failed on emissions (3.28) . Ok I can probably deal with that with 2 stroke and a blast but my question is mine does no...

Engine problem 1.9tdi

I had a tiny collision which cracked my grill and number plate. The car was written off class N so I bought it back from insurers. It was returned to me with a flat tyre and battery with a few bits "missing" from inside. When he started it up on flatbed it sounded awful! There is a loud po...

"how to" cambelt 1.9tdi

Is there a how to or is it pretty much the same as the 1.8? I am pretty competent at most repairs although at 64 my mobility isn't what it used to be. I'm in Southampton so if anyone knows anyone who does the job for respectable charge I would be very interested

Hello all

Hi, at 64 years old I have just bought my first ever VW which, obviously, is a Passat. I'm hoping not to need much help but a site like this will be a blessing.
1st question: Mine's an 07 plate 1.9 S TDI which 'B' group does it come in?

Cheers

Dave
