• 184,000 km
• Timing chain replaced
• Water pump + cooling system done
• Oil + all filters changed
• Brake pads new
• Front & rear bumpers repainted
i know nothing about mechanics, car market in Algeria is very limited, and i fell in love with this A4
should i go for it ? 177 engine owners, how reliable this engine is?
I am wanting to get better exhaust sound. What ways have you had success? I don’t want it to be ridiculously loud and obnoxious, but want to be able to hear it, don’t mind a little drone.
So as you can see AND HEAR, this is a starter problem… what problem? I don’t know. I have done a tdi swap with an ACME Adaptor kit and I have followed all the instructions but the starter doesn’t align well. As far as I know, I am using the starter they say to use. I checked all the probables issues, even the wiring.. but I can go further on the swap.. any ideas?
annas-archive.gl has most Manuals for VW and Audi up until the year 2010 then it's like nothing else in the database that I can find.
As the weather is warming up, I have started to hear the DMF chatter. I plan on doing it this summer.
Where should I get one, which website do you recommend?
While I'm at it, do you guys suggest changing anything alongside?
A shop quoted me CA$1200 labor ($125/Hr)
Let me know what you guys think. Thanks
'11 CJAA Deleted, 0.5 Tunezilla, DSG
Ever since I discovered that Audi shoved a V12 TDI beast into their 2008-2012 Audi Q7s, I've been trying to figure out how I can import one into the US. The problem is, I do not have the time to get a regular Audi Q7 3.0 TDI, and swap in the harness, transmission, engine, front struts, differentials, and everything else needed to basically 'make my own' V12 TDI Q7.
How would you get one in the states? It's worth noting that I am in an area that does not require emissions testing, if that's helpful.
I am open to all the legal routes, and legal-ish routes. However, for these routes I don't want the result to be where the car gets crushed.
Dpf is chopped cheese. Is this all i need to get this started right ?
2012 vw jetta tdi CJAA. 280k km on it.
Got this down downpipe, what else do I need for the delete? Am I missing something for block the egr etc?
hey everyone, my wife's 2014 Passat's turbo kicked the bucket at 86k. I've purchased the Darkside 200HP kit and had a few questions.
Should I still purchase the upgraded oil feed line and drain line from VW or are the supplied variants adequate?
I really am looking for longevity, reliability, and highway fuel efficiency, hence the swap to a larger more reliable turbo. Since it's my wife's car and she doesn't need to hotrod it, what should I do for a tune? The one tuner I spoke to said he can do a Malone Stage 1 even though this is a CR170, I just need some validation that he's right and that that would be the best option.
I am preparing to Delete my 2012 Passat DSG.
Currently have 107k mi and ready to move. I just want to know if these selected are going to be what I'm looking for, and if I'm getting the correct parts and tunes. I have never done this before so bear with me please.
I want better fuel economy, and reliability, plain and simple. I'm not looking for more horses, torque or to Roll Coal, just need the emissions removed.
Diesel DNA Tuning Delete and Tuning Package.
Extra Block Plates, EGR Pipe Replacement.
An option to add is DSG Tune for an additional $350.
This also comes with an AlienTech Tuner.
FlashZilla Pro Tuner Stage 0.5
ECU Add-on Tunes
Dynamic Idle, I do live in the Midwest, Southern Indiana and it does tend to get cold for about a month.
What else do I need? Do I buy the DSG Tune from DNA for the extra $350, or is that going to be done with the TuneZilla?
What part is this and where can I get a replacement? Hard to read the numbers on it . It’s for a 2006 tdi Jetta manual and it’s related to the shifter I know for sure
Doing a big 3 upgrade on my mk4 alh and I’m not sure where the block ground is.
know how to do the alternator->battery and battery ground, but don’t know where exactly the block/trans ground is if someone could help,
Thanks
Hi I noticed I got a coolant leak on my oil filter housing and I plan on changing that,I did some research and some people say that the bolts can be reused and some say they are TTY bolts so I came here to ask for advice.
Car is a Golf 6 1.6 TDI
Engine code CAYC
Maybe you guys would have more information on it compared to FB groups. My mk4 jetta has been down for about a year maybe a little over now. I was doing a manual swap and lost interest in the middle of it and it’s just been sitting. Before it went down I had some cheap $60 GT1749v turbo off of an 02 alh out of a junkyard…I took and random vacuum line and put it on the actuator…a bit scummy and retarded Ik. Im getting interested in it again and im trying to put it back together the correct way and not all retarded. Could I convert that turbo to a smart actuator or run the vacuum actuator from the alh?
Good day to everyone!, i have a 14 passat with a CKRA engine, ive been using liqui moly 4200 5w-30, i was wondering if anyone have used the rotella Mv 5w-30 on any TDI, (mines deleted so i dont need the low ash requirements) the price comparison is huge, thats one of the reason it caught my attention, would it be good for my next oil change?
A friend of mine is looking for an affordable daily that would be fuel efficient. One of the things we came across was a 2011 Jetta TDI, which I did an auto scan with VCDS. Nothing came up on emissions system faults, everything was electronic. To my understanding, its a coolant fan control circuit, (maybe a relay?) the turn signals on the mirror, which WORK, they just flicker like a dying LED bulb, auto HVAC, though the manual controls seem to operate it just fine, one airbag crash sensor, and satellite radio and navigation. The only one I'm truly concerned about is the airbag crash sensor, everything else seems manageable and backyard mechanic-able. They want $4000 for it, but, theres obviously room for negotiation. Its a former roadside assistance car. No clue if its been serviced for the DPF and EGR or not, but, it has no code for it, but at that mileage its either about to go, or just been replaced.
For anybody interested, this pastebin has the full VCDS scan.
obviously too cold to be overheating because its only been running for 20 seconds. I noticed i was idling the other day as I went into the store, and the radiator fans weren't running, after I rolled away the temp light flashed and beeped, and went off after I was rolling again. Any ideas?
Has anybody replaced the rocker cover gaskets on a 3.0 TDI CRTD?
Specifically the nearside cover gaskets (bank 4-6). Curious to know how's best to go about doing this side. As it seems to be impossible to remove the rocker cover without disturbing the A/C lines at the back.
