Hiya i have also posted this in the VCDS page as im not sure which place is best, i hope this ok to also go in this section
Hay here's my question Guys ....here's the short one ... I got a free quick VCDS test done today but i have no idea what the results (I'm a novice) are so any help please?
The longer one....
i have a problem with my beloved Passat 2005 B5.5 1.9tdi 130bhp that started 2 days ago. (i think) The turbo is not working properly, i choose to drive in low rpm otherwise the turbo kicks in and then it jolts a little bit as it works then doesn't then works then doesn't reasonably rapidly in quick succession.
I have spent hours reading up on here and looking at videos on youtube and i think i now have JUST enough knowledge to know it could be one of many things lol! such as.....
split pipes, Fuel filter(?), Fuel pipe blockage, blocked Turbo vane actuator (http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=actuator), EGR blocked with Crud in general, Reverse lights fuse (reverse lights do work tho!),
Bad MAP sensor (http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=map+sensor) (i removed and sprayed it with Halfords (http://www.halfords.com/) Electrical contact cleaner)
A Bad MAF sensor (I didn't have a 5 star Torx security bit, so removed the complete unit it is screwed onto from the top of the air filter box cover and sprayed as best i could, probably done nothing tho as i couldn't get close enough, i have ordered a correct torx bit)
or basically the turbo on its last legs
The orange coil light does not flash to suggest a fault code has been logged!
My questions are - does the picture show what has been tested.
- do the readings show something is not correct or above or below what it should be, basically what are the results showing?
- is there some specific test the guy could have done to find a fault as im not sure how extensive the test he did was
-can you tell by the picture what he tested for? was it just the MAP sensor?
-Last question what the bloody hells wrong? i love my Passat LOL https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/confused.png im hoping the results show its just a bad MAF or MAP?
The very kind lad said he is not to up on the VCDS system so i should go to the garage down the road to ask them what they think of the results shown in the picture....
Turns out they don't use VCDS they use a snap-on test system? so he didn't look at the picture i wanted to show him and has booked it in for him to test it himself (£66 to plug in and test it)
like i said i have read up for a few hours and watched videos to try and give me more info before i post this as i am a newbie to this so please be kind lol
ive tried to include as much info as i could in the hope some of your knowledgeable guys can give me some help and advice please https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/smile.png
