    I have the same car, the injector values that you see are very good if they don't pass 2.5 mg/h, anyway those values are when your engine is idleing, to know the real values when the engine is reving you need to go to a service when they put them on a special tester, PD injectors should show an error if they do have a problem, if they give too much gas or less gas than needed, missfiring or things like that.
    Anyway, i found your videos very helpful, keep up the good work!

  • @kevinpedersen5290
    @kevinpedersen5290 2 роки тому +3

    from my experience with the tdi engines is also that if someone (previous owners or mechanics) have replaced the battery, it's sometimes a low ampere battery so it struggles with the diesel engine especially when cold.

    Have you had any silencers removed from the exhaust or just a dpf delete? Because on my Audi A3 a dpf delete gave me no sound increase, but I got the middle box removed from my exhaust and it gave me a much deeper and much louder sound, the popcorn limiter sounds so much better after too👌🏻 my popcorn limiter was pathetic before

  • @carlitoo4867
    @carlitoo4867 2 роки тому +2

    Simplest way of putting it is PD = pump duse is a mechanically driven injector whereas common rail is electronically controlled, PD doesn’t have a high pressure fuel pump like common rail does they have the tandem pump which is a low pressure fuel pump essentially!

  • @janniss6401
    @janniss6401 2 роки тому +3

    Your Injectors are Siemens PD. PD means that each injector is its own high pressure fuel pump, driven by the exhaust camshaft. The idle stabelization values you showed should equal 0 at any moment. Because ist's only used for idle stabelization, all values go to 0, when you rev the engine. If the values don't equal 0, it's usually a good indecation of bad incetors. Your values seem good though, wich leads me to believe, that it is most likely an issue with the map. As for the starting issue, that could be the camshaft Hall-Sensor, as it determines, when to fire the injectors at startup and ist descibed by Audi as the "Fast starting sensor"

    I have the same model however I've not had the hesitation problems it's had the dpf removed & remapped as far as I know although I'm not sure what the output is the car itself has been a different pain in the 'Harris' my starting problem was the main starter motor live lead was loose due to 'Autotechnik' Blackpool as other things he missed out. I've had a leaky tandem pump gasket in the past. The stud the tightens the cam belt tensioner pulley sheared off 3 weeks into owning the car. Last problem has been a pain in the 'harris' for the rac recovery operative he didn't know the difference between an A3 & an A4 the actual problem diagnosed being lack of fuel the rac operative ripped up my back seat looking for my fuel pump, he battered my fuel tank with a lump hammer & then poured the fuel out of the filter on to the tarmac I said he better go after seeing that eventually the car went to Redman Autos Poulton for 5 months he lost the key eventually I asked for it back after no progress being made he said it needs an ecu I managed to find 1 with a matching key 433mhz I got the car back 5 days having it back I got it running the relays under the ecu had been sat in 3" of water 2 new relays & the 3rd cleaned up, fresh fuel in the new filter it started straight away so steer clear of Redman Autos Poulton & Autotechnik on the edge of Blackpool

    Hi Buddy, hope you get this comment / question. I've recently found your channel as I also have a 2.0TDI 170, B7. Great videos and very good information.
    Question, Mine suffers with a bad fume smell, on tick over and running, you can smell when windows are down ( not closed ) I researched online and your video came up about the Tamdem pump. Did yours have this fume smell and did it cure it after you changed the Tamden pump?
    Also my clutch, into 1st and 2nd is ok but not great, you comment saying yours improved after changing this.
    I'm going to get mine changed so Thanks for the great video, just thouth I'd ask about the fume smell and if it cured it or did you have that issue as well?
    Thank you.

I've got a golf with the same engine I was worried it was injectors but most injector failures cut the engine instead of carry on running the only fault code I have is one for 02 sensor I replaced it and still get the same fault im wondering if oil in the diesel caused by the tandem pump failure is the cause of all this issues aswell as the awful smell it idles slightly rough but I wouldn't say misfire and there's no fault for misfire when code read so maybe its also letting small amounts of air into the system also??

      Thankfully the corrados okay I just miss driving it! 😂 So sorry to hear about your dog. Have you got a replacement for the R?

      @@BWTV I did buy a replacement for the r. I can’t figure out how to send a pic. Technology challenged, although I did make a living creating package art for Kodak , on a MAC. I bought a 2020 Toyota 86, which is a twin to the Subaru BRZ. It’s not as fast as the golf r, but it’s more fun to drive, for some reason. Well it’s RWD, for one thing. I also got another dog. I just didn’t know what to do without my dog.
