  1. Didn't seem to harm my DPF. Anyway another thing you could try is carbon cleaning, that is done from the air intake it was quite a big thing not so long back, check around your local garages see if any of them do that.
  2. That's the air intake you need to clean the exhaust side of the turbo, that's the part that can get gummed up, someone may come up with a simpler method but what I did was unscrewed the oxygen sensor on top of the DPF, used a piece of brake pipe bent it towards the turbo and used the nozzle from the Mr. muscle to get it into the turbo, left it half an hour put the sensor back and started the engine, seemed to work that won't clean the EGR.
  3. Remanufactured injectors are also a fortune, one of my injectors went faulty and to get a remanufactured one was almost £400 how much new one's are I Dred to think esp from Skoda. My advice is if it ain't broke don't fix it.
  4. So I bought one of these stereos and I am really pleased with it, the same that you bought Scouserjay but not from Ebay off Amazon TomTom works ok and so does the DAB, got to try Android auto yet, had it going in no time I knew about the two pin plug that needed to be disconnected after fitting the canbus, for a cheap Chinese unit I like it.
  5. Ok I see well I'm no auto electrician so I can't help you with the problem, there are a lot of very knowledgeable people on here that may be able to help. Sorry.
  6. Have you checked the relay? do you have a multi meter if you say the car is ok when you bypass it, it could be faulty.
  7. Have you priced up the injectors they are a fortune and they have to be coded to the car, so if you are getting good milage I wouldn't bother put some injector cleaner in the fuel.
  8. Thanks for the reply, I'm going to get one and see how it goes.
  9. Welcome to the forum Dotty61 I'm sure if you have any questions when it come to rectifying the problems someone on here will be able to help, enjoy the car and have fun driving it. That's what it is all about.
  10. I've been thinking of getting one of these for my car, when you say it's not perfect can you be a bit more informative I would like to use it more for sat nav mainly TomTom. Thanks.
  11. If you get one from the scrap yard it will have to be the same as the original one that was fitted also it will be coded so make sure you get the code as well. Don't know how my other post got there twice lol.
  12. I believe that you can buy an wiring adaptor the original stereo would only have a low line out to the amp, have a look on eBay also try a search on here as I'm sure its been posted before.

  14. I would get the car scanned with VCDS or something similar see if there is any fault codes stored that may help with the problem.
