Muzzy

Thanks again for getting back to me I think your explanation is spot on I have looked today and found the valve seems to be either extremely loose or it has snapped. I think I'll get it checked in and sorted as soon as possible. Thank you for your kind help and advice. Muzzy.

Thanks again great advice I have noticed that there's some evidence of oily leakage around it , but not sure how fresh it is, does the valve pull out or do you have to remove the rocker cover to change it if it is broken ? I don't have a workshop manual so I am in the dark on this one. If it is the valve I think I am going to have to pay a visit to the garage but to keep costs down I would like to have a go myself. Thank you for your help.

Thanks for your message I have not had any fault codes read yet I am just trying to identify the area before committing it to the garage. The car runs fine it's just a slight issue with the tick over. Weather permitting tomorrow I plan to investigate further, I just wanted to check if this is an issue common to the 2.1tsi engine. Thanks again

I seem to have a vacuum leak (rough idle). Anyone had similar problems?
