Passat b5.5 tdi limp mode and 17965/17911 codes

Post by Bundeimos »

Gday everybody!



I have a pd130 as far as the registration is concerned but when I check the engine numbers on the cambelt and engine bay it's listed as an avb which is a Pd100.



This leaves me rather unsure on how to proceed with which ancillary parts to use... Like the maf sensor, n75 valve, fuel pump etc.



She is going into limp mode when I floor it which resets when I turn her off and on again. Occasionally I'll pop her into neutral and do this while rolling if I can't pull over - sometimes this throws an emissions light with the same faults.

If driven gently she generally doesn't go into limp mode (although does sometimes) I've changed the maf sensor and that seemed to fix it for a few months but then it comes back.



Sometimes it throws a CEL and I can reset the codes and she's good to go. The codes she regularly shows are 17965 "charge press. Ctrl. Control limit exceeded" and 17911 "load signal terminal DF of generator implausible signal"



Any help with this issue would be great!



Cheers
