Tryed to test with the WPS500 at the Dipstick and Intake but could not get any fitting that would seal. Did a self made Leakdown tes...

Citroen Xsara 1,4

Hi, Got a 1999 Xsara 1,4 Petrol.. Did not run right, so the Owner tweeked the Throttle Cable so that it always runs at 2000, there you did not feel it missing as much :) After reseting the Throttle Cable it has a low Idle but shakes a lot. After fixing a Vaacuum leak, it got better but still present...

Re: 1998 Vectra B (X18XE) with P0335 / P0130

Hi, Thanks, for the TIS Infos....greater than 8000 ? I think the Engine would not get to that rpm even if it would rum without any Transmission and without any Accessories ;) Will look at that for sure, but with the (3) third ECU installed by now and always the same error - i don´t think it´s gonna ...

Re: 2006 VW Golf 5 - 1,4 BCA - Cyl.2 Misfire

The Engineshop told us, that this problem is common for 3 things : - old (faulty) Software on the Engine ECU - not optimal quality valves - little oil burning because of city-driving only and carboned oil rings We will see, the software was updated lately (but maybe to late) , there were no oil-prob...

If i could, i would just...
