  1. No smoke whasoever. I don't think its an injector breaking down otherwise the injection quantity deviation would have shown it up. There was an intermittent code for an implausible signal on one of the injectors, but it didn't come back at all. Is the injector loom a common fault then? Is it easy and cheap to replace? I'll keep scanning it to see if that code keeps appearing, strange it only does it at high speed in fifth though,.you'd think engine vibrations at high revs in other gears would do it aswell.
  2. Ok. Changed the fuel filter today and cleaned out the egr to make sure its shutting properly. Egr didn't look very mucky. All the readings on VCDS were within limits at idle and also the 3000rpm 3rd gear full load ones. Took it on the motorway and couldn't get it do do it anymore except once at 100mph. So hopefully whatever it is is clearing itself out. It's gonna get a few tanks of Shell nitro diesel to hopefully clear anything out that was causing the problem.
  3. Awesome, thats what I was hoping. Its been off all week but not driven very far. Gonna take off the EGR and clean it this weekend, make sure its shut properly. Cheers
  4. Don't really want or need a remap so if it does come on I'll just reconnect it. I'm sure I read somewhere that certain engines don't throw up a light.
  5. If one comes on will it go off again just by reconnecting it though?
  6. I've got a full version of VCDS. No fault codes when I last scanned it, won't be able to play with the car till next weekend. What would you suggest I log and what am.I looking for? Cheers
  7. If you blank off the EGR or block the vac pipes will it set off an EML on an ATD engine? Cheers
  8. Not sure but its been serviced every year by Skoda so I doubt its that, will probably change it anyway.
  9. Its a 51 plate. Completely standard Nothing else that I've noticed.
  10. Recently bought a 1.9 TDI with 140k and 14 skoda stamps so well looked after, but noticed yesterday on the motorway that if I floor it in fifth it feels like its misfiring, Revs don't shoot up so its not clutch slipping and it does accelerate still. Doesn't really seem to do it in other gears.
  11. Hi Can anyone help me out with the location of the gearbox breather vent/hose location and know what it looks like? Also does anyone have any suggestions as to where to look for gearbox oil leaks, it was a bit wet on the bottom and had old manky muck up on top, Stuff on the bottom was definetly gearbox oil but stuff on top could just have been spillage from oil topups. Ive cleaned it all off now and going to check level tomorrow.
