Hi All
I have a 1999 A4 2.5 TD that wont run properly. After the car had been stood for a few hours when starting it smoked (diesel as you could smell it) for about 3 miles then cleared up but continued to run with less power than it should have. I have donw some work myself and now taken it to vw/audi garage and they are confused too.
It has been put on the diagnostic machine (proper one not a hand held one) and it does not show any errors. The timing had been checked, new injectors have been fitted and still this makes no difference. I really dont know what to do next and would be so gratefull if someone had experienced a similar problem and could shed some light.
It appears that the left hand side of the engine is not fueling properly which is why I am confused.
Thanks in advance
