  1. I've already tried disconnecting the battery overnight, which didn't work, and I'm not sure about the calibration thing. I would have thought after some driving it would calibrate itself but that's just a guess. Yes, I've removed the manifold 3 times now. The first time was difficult as there is a hidden M10 bolt under the manifold which is very difficult to see and access which took me a good 25 mins to figure out and the only way to get to it is to remove the throttle body. The second and third time was much easier once you know where all the bolts are it only takes about 20 mins to whip off.
  2. Never got to bottom of it mate. I even had a garage I trust look and see if they could figure the problem out but to no avail. So I just have to live with a constant EML on the dash. I did cure the misfire by using seafoam. I used a bottle in the fuel and crankcase then another bottle straight in the throttle body which made a huge difference. The car has much more torque in lower revs now. I also pulled back the intake manifold to look if the seafoam actually did anything and the valves were immaculate compared to before so would highly recommend on these direct injection engines.
  3. So I've just checked the intake manifold solenoid which is working fine, I've also checked the wiring and connectors which I can access and they also seem to be working fine. I've recently thought that I purchased the intake manifold and the manifold sensor seperate. Could the sensor be located on the wrong part of the shaft that runs through the manifold. I remember seeing the sensor had a square female fitment which was mated onto a square shaft, maybe I've put the sensor on 90 degree out? Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
  4. It's not a genuine skoda manifold but it is a quality aftermarket manifold so seems unlikely that could be the problem. I will give testing the wiring a go as up to now I've only done a visual check.
  5. Hi everyone, I know theres endless topics on this subject but I can't find anything relevant to whats happened here. So I've had the notorious p2015 code on my dash for a few weeks after some research found the only option is to buy and install a new intake manifold. So 2 days ago I've installed the new manifold and the EML has already come back on with the same p2015 code. I've tried disconnecting the battery for 30mins to try and do a full reset as I read codes could be stored but had no luck getting rid. The code will only clear with an obd reader but comes back after around 40 mins of driving. I just cant figuire out whats causing the problem? I thought the only cause had to be either the runner flaps, the actuator or the sensor for this code ,all 3 of which are brand new on this manifold. I've had a look at the wiring around the intake manifold, all of which looked fine. Is there anything else that can cause the p2015? Maybe somthing with the throttle body? A vaccum leak? I really want to get to the bottom of it as the car runs mint when the light is off but as soon as it reappears it starts misfiring, has a rough idle and obviously the unsightly EML. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Shane.
  6. Hi all, I've recently got the p2015 engine light pop up on the dash so after plenty of research have come to the conclusion I'm going to have to get a new intake manifold. I've seen that shipping one from America works out relitevly cheaper than here in the UK. My question is will the part below fit my 2012 Octavia vrs tsi. I believe I have the EA888 engine although I'm not 100% sure on that. https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/tsi-intake-manifold-with-complete-installation-kit-improved-oem-version-over-oe-06j133201bd/06j133201bh1ktkt/ Thanks in advance.
