    Thanks but no thanks as I have found in the past most motor factors use the cheapest parts they can find which in the long run do not last and if you have to pay someone to do the job it works out much more than buying a genuine part and fitting once, II just thought that someone might have part numbers for the original bits that I could buy online, our main dealers are 20 miles away and must have muppets working in the parts department

    Most motor factors usually have different makes of the same part, Cheap, mid range or top quality. If you go in there asking for the cheapest you will get crap but ask them for a decent make and they will be able to supply it

  2. I just did this to my other halfs Ibiza 1.2tdi, I bought a kit from ebay but the electronics box only lasted 3 months before it went faulty and brought the EGR fault back. I just took it to a tuning place last weekend who removed it from the ECU. Car runs lovely again and fault free!

     

    You only need 2 blanking plates, the ones that remove the egr pipe from the front of the engine near the oil filter. Really easy ti fit

     

    Hope that helps

     

  3. What year is your car? My DPF is at the top of the engine I have a 2010 1.6tdi elegance model. The break in your exhaust appears to be after the DPF. 

     

    I drove mine for 2 weeks with the exhaust and glow plug light on and eventually it went into limp mode and wouldnt go above 30mph, I really struggled to save the DPF but eventually i managed it with a cleaner and forcing a regen with VCDS

  4. Hi everyone,

     

    ive a 2011 fabia 1.6 tdi elegance. Recently the turbo let go and I had a garage fit me a replacement. Since getting the car back I have fault code P0544 exhaust gas temperature sensor bank 1 circuit 1. So I’m going to replace it but I’m unsure of which sensor it is I ha e spoken to TPS and they say it has 3 sensors in the exhaust but can’t tell me which one it could be, apparently there is 3 different plug colours orange, black or brown

     

     

    could anyone tell me which it is likely to be?

     

    Thanks!
