Thought i'd post a update now the vans been sorted, was at the dealers for about 3 weeks while they looked at it and it turns out it was the rear crank seal was fitted without the proper tool. The correct tool holds the tone wheel and seal as it presses them into the housing holding it all aligned c...

Sounds like yours was a pd style engine? This is a common rail one with bosch injectors, at the moment it has been at the dealership for 1 week now and all they have said is maybe its the tone wheel on the back of the crankshaft, even though the original mechanic has replaced it and it scopes out be...

So no good news at this stage, it went back to the garage that did the original work, they pulled it apart and got the turbo checked out as they really like checking things, all ok. Pulled the covers off and thought he'd found something as the timing was half a tooth off, apparently you can get 13 o...

Hey just check voltage drop, have had a porchse with a vag tdi engine and it had big voltage drop between body and starter, big new earth lead between body and engine block, reduced cranking time and also faster cranking

Heres one of the crank signal, cam signal, pressure control solenoid on the fuel and and the suction control valve on the fuel pump. i can see the injection is stopping straight after/ as the final bit of the cam pulse passes through, would this be a cambelt stretching type issue? if it is i thought...

Yes the DPF has been removed, the EGR hadbeen blanked off as well but the blanking plate removed and factory tune put back in to see if it would cure it after the engine was done up. It feels like a miss on 1-2 cylinders when driving, between roughly 1500-2800 rpm worse with more load on but can eve...

Also forgot to add, have scoped the EGR and throttle body and neither are opening or shutting or moving much at all when this is happening, the next wave form is of the MAP and fuel pressure sensors and a injector current Any ideas or help would be great, also a bit hard for me to upload to facebook...

Have had this van given to me after another garage has just had the engine done up after it got very worn out from running poorly and ignorred, after the rebuild of the enige it has developed what feels like a miss fire but when scoped looks to be the ECU cutting injection then reintroducing it afte...

Thought i'd just post up for anyone else for future reference, the timing in the first post is a incorrect timing setup but the vehicle wasnt returned after its final repair to get a good capture.

Have done a few of these now, if you do the chain i would reccomend using genuine parts as some prople here have used cheaper parts only to fail, slip and have to redo the job in 2-3 months time.
Have a look at these.
