Evening, Welcome along to Briskoda!

Have a look at your throttle body, it may need cleaning and so is allowing too much air through if it’s sticking a smidge. Also the Idle Air Control valve.

I believe if one scrolls back a few yrs of this thread to circa 2018/19 I got a Tipo in Northern Italy when we went to Venice. It was grand. Drive grand. Felt grand. Was kitted grand. Fit the at the time 3 of us and the bags and baby crap. I do see the very very odd one around from time to time but they are a rare vehicle this far up Northern Europe. Edit - page 1! The first round of this thread 😆

Niro is too good, cee’d too common… Tipo isn’t a bad guess tbf… But I’ll say Peugeot 2008

Oh you’re there now? I’ll go with Kia C apostrophe D

Hello, is there any upgrade available for this? Please use a translation tool for posts on the site, as the default language is English and I know the mods don’t like to start giving out warnings for wrong language stuff.

I’m open to being wrong, but I’m pretty sure you have both a maf and a map sensor on your engine. Also do you have a code translation for those above? They seem to be proprietary codes from the tool you’re using

Yeah, crank sensor tend to be hard starts, rather than rough idle. Great thing about the maf check is it’s easy to do. Just unplug it and turn the key. It either resolves or it doesn’t.

Did the mechanic put a diagnostic tool on? My first guess would be Mass Air Flow sensor getting inconsistent readings causing fuelling problems. Try unplugging it, and see what it does then. If it settles down and doesn’t do the bounce there’s your answer. Without the sensor plugged in the ex just reverts to a default condition and an assumed airflow rate and fuels according to that.

….. Mine does 😵‍💫

Also, assuming it’s the same across models, the heat only comes on when the rear demister is also turned on. So get the knob turned as close to heat as it will go (as said they don’t line up) and turn on the demister. Should work then.

Welcome along Fernando! Great to see another classic being kept on the road!

Think you quoted me by accident instead of the op

👋 welcome to the forum!

Apparently it depends on when your car was built.. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/459109-options-list-sticker-location/ @Breezy_Pete may be able to help you via pm if you ask really nicely though 😉

👋 Hi and welcome to Briskoda! Hope you’re getting on well with your 2 Octavias! And the mods will be delighted you’ve used translate off your own initiative 😆

Hi @SaltyGibbon I see your showing as a new member so the pm facility doesn’t open to you until (I think) about 20 posts made. So, float around, comment on a few project threads you like, visit the social area etc and get your count up to qualify 👍🏻

Oh and we need photos of the pupper in the pets of Briskoda thread in the social forums 🤣

Boot size is relative I suppose… from an Up! To a Fabia is a size increase! Welcome to Briskoda, hope you enjoy your time around the neighbourhood 👋

👋👋 welcome along! Yeah, a Punto to an Octavia is a big scale up 😂

👋 Evening MrDay, Welcome to Briskoda! Hope you enjoy the tinkering 👍🏻

Nor do induction noises apparently…. I know it’s hard for a male brain to comprehend that this is peer reviewed science debunking a myth but sadly we must use our own noises (words…) to try and glean affection from those we find attractive 🤣

Hi John, Have a look in the owners manual, it’s usually shown on the dash board/ cabin layouts. But in general with VAG cars it’s located on the lower panel area of the dashboard below the headlight switch near the drivers door. It may have a little cover over it or not, I don’t know the exact layout of a mk4. Also, Just buy an obd11 or carista or elm327 Bluetooth dongle off the internet, install the relevant app on your phone sync them together and have fun. The elm327’s usually use Torque as the app. In which case pay the few pennies and get the TorquePro version. Gives you much more useful information and diagnosis options.

Hi Steve and welcome along. You really have been a busy beaver for a while 😂 Hope you learned lots while doing all that work..

It will make precisely no difference to the engine other than make more noise 🤣 At the end of the day it’s a citigo so while it it handles like a go kart it’s because it is. (My wife had one for 8yrs, I know exactly what they are like 😂) However, the engine setup is such that a ram air is going to look cool as fk down the Tesco car park of an evening but it’s really not going to do anything. Insurance implications - @DAN@ADRIAN FLUX or @ChrisKnottIns might have a little advice on that front?
