Starting and idle problem
Hi! I was thinking that maybe i should update this after few months. First of all, the original problem is gone. No shutting down anymore. Im not sure what did the thing, maybe it was that changed camsaft position sensor, nut-blasting etc. I dont know but its gone now. However, there has been couple of new problems that i should take care of. Electric tailgate is causing me lots and lots of gray hairs. Its like a having electric tailgate but you have to operate it manually 🙄 wont go up and says beeb and wont go down and says beeb. Im pretty sure there is something wrong with cables but because i live in finland there is -20 everyday so maybe i just wait for spring to come. Next problem is that heater wont blow any warm on the passenger side (typical). My guess is failed flap-motor-thing? And third, a little bit related that original problem, sometimes hard to start, it always starts but its a little rough? Would it be like crancksaft position sensor?

Thank you. I must say that this is way better forum than those finnish forums wich are mainly for vag-cars.

Not yet. No shutting down in three weeks now and working perfectly fine. Fingers crossed that issue is gone now 🤞

I actually was thinking that too but i understood that faulty cranksaft position sensor would leave a errorcode something like "p0335"

I don't know if they checked it last time car was in repair shop. It feels boosting well. I haven't checked anything by myself cause dealer has paid everything since i reported first problem wich was the original problem. My friend who knows lots about cars succested that injectors should be checked but i don't have resurs for that if dealer won't pay the costs.

Nothing much, no one knows what could have cause those problems, altough it havent shutting off like two weeks now so hopefully it never will again. Next thing what will be happening is oil-consumption test. Dealer will pay this too. Car repair shop said that smoke/steam could be burning oil but i dont believe that because oil level is not lowering at all.

Nope, still mystery. Car is going new repair shop wich suppose to be better than previous one. I heard new idea wich can cause this problem, misaligned timing chain

I have using x1-r bensin + booster additive after refueling. I believe fuelt filter is integrated to the pump so it can not be changed 😐 i have used 98 octane fuel wich is highest in finland. Funny that you mention turbo, i have been a bit conserned about it because lately i noticed that every time i accelerate very sporty lots and lots of grey or white smoke are coming from the exhaust. Not sure about the color though.

Yes, dealer said that i will have to change repair shop. I hope they can solve this problem.

Fuel economy is really really bad, i can barely get under 10L/100km in the city, there must be something seriously wrong with the car

So, it seems that same problem is back. I was leaving at the grocery store with my son and i press the start-button and car immediately shut down. No idle problem, just shut down. Starting feel that i'm losing my hope with this car 😩 maybe i should have bought bmw or something else 🙄

Starting and idle problem
So far it's running great, only one time idle was a bit weird but car did not shut down. I don't know about the sounds but it seems that consumption in city is little bit better, ~8l/100km urban. I know that TSI RS isn't the most economic car but i think that is pretty much as low as it can get. Rpms are ~800 I was planning to check air filter and maybe clean up the throttle body just in case.

Grey or white smoke while hard accelration
So im not quite sure wich one it is cause i have factory tinted rear windows. All the worst case scenarios are popping in to my head but can anyone say what could cause this? I have checked coolant and oil levels regularly and everything looks normal. I remember reading about this way back before and someone said it could be just condensation water or rain water or something like that? Maybe pcv valve? Car is 2015 2.0 tsi octavia rs and dsg transmission. 194000 on the clock now.
