  1. have now dcecided after talking to somebody who does carbon engine cleaning he seems to think it will be the egr vavle so am going to tackle it myself nowt to lose as am taking it off the road at the end of the month so i have nothing to loose will be watching lots of you tube videos knowing that part of the front subframe has to be dropped fortunately for me i have the tools and the driveway to work on it and its almost summer so would rather do it myself anyway that way i will know will update you on my progress ok thanks f
  2. well the car ran ok for about 100 miles now its back to the state it was in before just about had enough of this pile of **** going to sell it spent too much money on it
  3. does that mean the injector has to be calibrated in the car as the place that had the injectors calibrated the faulty injector on a machine at their workshop the garage just put the injectors back in not sure what he did whether he plugged the car into his daignostic machine
  4. Ok will do that i have a abs sensor that needs replacing he said that he took the maf sensor plug of and the abs went off so not sure if that is the issue have ordered a new wheel sensor for the rear offside wheel so when that comes will fit it and take it from there hopefully that may help to eradicate the judder
  5. hello update on the skoda judder issue at long last after being at the garage about 4 weeks have the car back the injectors where taken out and sent off the people who tested them said that injector number 2 was faulty they corrected it and sent the injectors back to the garage The gut put them back in anhd had a bit of a test drive said it needs to do about 1000 miles for the injectors to settle down .I had heard that bhe Injectors need to be matched to the vehicle ie code in the vehicle not sure if he done this as its still got a slight misfire and a tiny judder under low rev range its much better to drive now than before .Will not be taking it back to him anyway suggested the M A F sensor could be to blame for the slight misfire and slight judder beginning to think ive bought a white elephant anyway
  6. hello thanks for that Ive heard from the garage that he had the injectors checked and they said number 2 injector was faulty so not sure if they have replaced it with a new one or managed to fix it as yet the car is still in the garage now waiting for him to put the injectors back into the car .so hopefully that will cure it hoping to get the car back this week too been without it for about a month now so getting a bit fed up with the garage anyway .let you know how i get on thanks
  7. yes think that is the only way forward at theminute its still in the garage the bloke is supposed to send the injectors off for testing so if that does not cure it i guess i will end up taking it off the road and having a go at cleaning the egr its a bit of a job i know but not much else i can do its terrible to drive as it is even worse in slow moving traffic .will let you know the outcome ive spent enough money on it anyway
  8. hello the saga with my skoda still hasnt been rectified .Have had a new dmf and clutch replaced and the judder was still there ,so i ended up taking it to a garage who seemed to think it was the fuel pump he took it off and sent it off to repair ,it came he put it on and suggested i put some injector cleaner through the system to help with the fault dis as he asked it was ok for a day then it started the juddering again so now its back in the garage again this time he thinks its the injectors Have heard these engines where fitted with the Siemens brand of injector so am getting a bit fed up with this car just wondering if i have bought a white elephant its cost me loads up to now its only done 108 k miles if having the injectors tested and recalibrated does not fix the problem i dont know what else to do Ive spent so much money on this car any other ideas if its not the injectors am at a loss any tips please
  9. the saga with my car continues Had the DMF clutch replaced and its still doing the juddering but not as bad .Now have taken it to a garage to be looked at he said it was the Diesel fuel pump si he is sending it away to get reconditioned .Seems strang as the car has only done 10k miles its cost me an arm and a leg so far Hopefully this time it will be cured only .While the fuel pump is off he is going to replace the cambelt and waterpump too so keeping my fingers crossed
  10. hiya thanks for your response to my question had heard these suffered with bad injectors of the siemens from about 2009 up to about 2013 on these engines as the are the same engines as the VW just mine sounds like the fault you have although its still judders right through the rev range it seems lessen a bit when you put your foot down . It was juddering before i ham the DMF and clutch replaced and thinking that masked the judder more but now that is fixed can notice the engine judder more now with the misfire happening at low revs whewn pulling away so at a loss as you say it can certainly be expepensive ive just had to pay out £920 to have the DMF and clutch replaced so going to have to live with as it is until either it breaks down or I manage to save some money to have it fixed hoping its not the injectors too watch this space >>>>
  11. Awhile ago I put a post up on here about the engine judder on my skoda ,.somebody suggested the DMF causing the issue ,have now had that replaced but there is still a judder when driving ie under load with a bit of a engine rattle now and again .its fine when stationary have checked the bottom engine mount the rear one that goes to the gear box that seem fine .I even took it out to inspect the rubber bush for wear but none there .The car has done just over 108000 miles .Its much better now to drive just that niggling judder now .Have only just picked up the car from the garage after having the DMF and clutch replaced .The fault was always there but it was masked slightly by the failing DMF any help much appreciated another thing iot has a drivers side abs sensor light now coming on that would cause the issue would it ??any help with this thanks
  12. thanks for that will try to get it sorted I know its going to be expensive
  13. I have a 2010 skoda Fabia 1.6 TDI diesel and its developed a annoying fault engine judder have checked engine mounts and drivetrain and changed the fuel filter and today took it for another test drive after I had checked everything over had a friend plug in his diagnotic tool but it showed no faults .Anyway engine juddering seemed to ease a little under acceleration but still there once or twice could feel vibration through the brake pedal when car stopped at traffic lights etc beginning to annoy me know any help would be much appreciated
