Hi Guys,
First post here,
Octavia Scout 2.0l diesel, intermittent problem with acceleration, it gets worse under load, ie higher gear or going uphill.
At a constant speed it does not have a noticeable problem. Don’t know a great deal about diesels and that’s where I get a bit stumped. I plugged a obd2 sensor in a couple of months ago when it first started and it came up as a fault with one of the glow plugs? Could this cause a problem like a misfire? Plugged it in again since it got worse, and got these three fault codes up. I would of thought it was a MAF sensor or possibly a throttle position sensor, or injector. Is this a common fault if it is showing an open circuit are the glow plugs energised constantly and not just for cold starting?
Thanks
Peter
