    Why are you worried about it?

    How does it drive under normal conditions?

    How much is economy affected?

    Does it have a lumpy idle when hot?

     

    Those figures are not massively out. When my injector died it was showing +/- 3.99mg/str which is the maximum value.  It only developed a lumpy idle when hot and the AC load was on. Economy was not really affected as mg are very small amounts and at operating revs the injectors are firing so rapidly it makes little difference.

     

    When I had it fixed the change in economy was barely noticeable though the idle was smoother.

    Sounds like you have a "leaky injector" where after use it will dribble a little bit into the cyclinder and this burns off when you restart. Mine was like that for over a year before I got it fixed but as I say it didn't cause me any real issues.

     

    I'd not be too worried about "idle" consumption. From what you describe this equated to 200ml per hour of idling. Do you set your car idle for long periods?  I'd be more concerned if my driving consumption changed a lot. 

    Thanks mate will see how it will progress during time.

  2. My daily commute is mainly through city traffic, so it contains lots of traffic lights therefore this increase is not nice to have :), about overall consumption is hard to tell cuz  outside temperature is always about 0 C, also  winter tyres has impact, so i need more time, but yeah there is no drastically increase in overall consumption.

    What have you done in your case? Pull out injectors, test and replace if needed? Can they be restored?

    I'm worried as idle consumption has increased from 0,7l/h to 0,9l/h. Lumpy idle observed only on cold engine for about 20s., but there was few times when after commuting for long time and then after one hour stop i started the engine and there were pretty heavy misfire with cloud of smoke so i think it's somehow related related. Also as you can see from the log sometimes deviation reaches 1,8.

    Were there any fault codes logged when you had VCDS hooked up to the car?

    Yeah there was one, but i dont think it's related somehow:

  5. Hello to everyone,

    Patient high mileage ~200k, 06 plate octavia DSG 1.9 tdi PD BXE. Recently i noticed increased fuel consumption on warm engine  while idling about 0,9L/H and sometimes when starting  warmish engine misfire with blue/white smoke occurs. So i took a ride with vcds and I saw that injection deviation increases while engine warms up.

    Cold engine which i think is absolutely fine and idle consumption is no more than 0,7l/h :

     -0.31 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 1
      -0.05 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 2
      0.19 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 3
      0.14 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 4

    While on warm engine (coolant temp above 80C) idle consumption always above 0,9l/h:

      -0.73 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 1
      1.13 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 2
      -0.56 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 3
      0.16 mg/str  Injection Quantity Deviation Cyl. 4

    About half year ago timing belt was changed and valve stem seals, month ago coolant sensor went crazy showing on dead cold engine 130C~ so i replaced this one also.

    First i thought dead injector cyl 2, but it's perfect on cold engine. Attached vcds log for more info.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    So today I swapped mine over. Took about 40 mins to do, but I wasn’t rushing things. Took it for a quick run afterwards and in 10 minutes it was up to temp. The gauge came up nice and smooth with none of the dropping back to 70. I’ll only know if it’s been the fix over the next couple of weeks, but so far seems like £23 was worth it!

    How's going so far, noticed any difference after change?
