Cannot find on Ross Tech, this fault stops DPF regeneration...

Aaron, why don't you take the car for a hard drive on motorway ?

I did last night, but it's getting more and more soot. It's up to 41g now, i think limit is 45g and then DPF replacement or removal.

I bought new throttle body, will replace that and try to regenerate. I think that's what stopped regen in the first place.

[crazy4alfa]

Removed throttle body and had a look if EGR was clean:

I'm no mechanic, but that looks a tadge gunky to me. Did you give it a good clean with brake cleaner or electrical contact cleaner?

[crazy4alfa]

It's not that bad, i have seen worse. I cleaned it with wheel acid. I find it really good to remove old oil and carbon build up. I think i will get EGR delete from darkside.

Fitted new throttle body yesterday and no more fault code. It does not require adaptation or coding, just plug and play. If it's faulty it stops regeneration happening. It's made by VDO and latest revision end with part no E. New one also had plastic flap instead of metal one.

After I had replaved throttle valve and glow plugs I tried to regenerate DPF, but no it wouldn't whilst driving. So i parked up and tried to regenerate whilst parked and it went well. It burned out the soot down to 5g, DPF light went out and car drives much better now.

Super duper, would you be tempted by a cheeky DPF gutting and a remap? ;)

[crazy4alfa]

I'm thinking to remove DPF and EGR on my A6. Not sure if engine will be able to handle, but I'd love hybrid turbo.

Help me please!!!!
I have an Audi A4 2.0 TDI B8 Chassis

I have the following faults and the engine running rough on idle, the engine light keeps coming on, and the coil light seems to flicker every 60ish seconds. I have reset the codes several times over the past couple of weeks, but they keep coming back. I have VCDS, but very limited knowledge on how to use it.

Where would I find EGR, Throttle Valve, DPF?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Regards
Ben

[crazy4alfa]

Replace throttle valve and glow plugs (i'd advice all 4, £45 from ECP). Valve is on the right hand side of the engine where intake pipe comes in.
If you are struggling to find them, I'd advice you to get specialist to have look.

If you keep driving it with these faults, you will clog your DPF and replacement is £750+.

[jamin128]

Good evening, thanks for your quick reply. Who are ECP?
I'm fairly confident at taking things apart and putting them back together, plus I can't afford to take it to a garage at the moment.
How much is throttle valve?
Are the glowplugs £45 for the set?
Will I need to clean EGR?
Will I need to do a forced regen?
How do I identify the parts I will need?
Is there a way of testing the soot using VCDS?

Sorry for all the questions, but all and any help is much appreciated :-)

[jamin128]

Sorry just clicked that ecp are euro car parts!!!!

[crazy4alfa]

Do you have DPF light on? IF not, don't worry about regen, just take it for a drive.
You can test soot via VCDS via Advanced measuring blocks, i think it around number 100.

Throttle valve is around £170 and set of glow plugs £45 (Beru ones are same genuine).

ECP is eurocarparts. Beru for glow plugs and throttle valve is Siemens.

[jamin128]

No DPF light on, just engine and coil.

Is the trottle valve a common problem?
I can't seem to find the throttle valve on ecp.

Will I need any specialist tools?

Thanks

.

[crazy4alfa]

No specialist tools.
Throttle valve is very common to fail.

Pm me your reg and I will send you a link.

[jamin128]

Heres my readings, I ticked a few other possible related items!!!!

Address 01: Engine (03L 906 022 JM)


21:43:17
078 Particle filter; soot mass calculated 21.87 g
079 Particle filter; soot mass measured 21.70 g
119 Throttle valve position (absolute) 87.8 %
142 EGR valve feedback 78.89 %

[jamin128]

Thanks for PM'ing part number.

How long do you think it would take to replace glow plugs and throttle valve?

Could I clean EGR with carburetta cleaner?

Oh and am I likely to loose any fluids?

Do you know what gaskets i would need to replace if i took out the EGR valve and cleaned it?

I am hoping to sort my car out tomorrow, weather depending.

[jamin128]

Last night I replaced my throttle body and glow plugs - Thanks for your help crazy4alfa :-)

All seems ok, and no fault codes ........ yet!!!

When i removed the old throttle body, oil came out of the electrical connection, and there was oil in the body and intake pipe. Is this normal?

I had a full service carried out before i did the repairs if this has any relevance.


Thanks in advanced for any help :-)

All fault codes have done, but the car seems to running rough on idle. It is at about 900rpm and occasionally increases towards 1000rpm and is much smother.

Is anyone able to help me ?
