Aaaand sold.. some more problems, rise of work related needs for a car and decent offer from dealer later i have a newer car

Somewhat trouble free motoring for the last 4 months... (y) slight judders occasionally (not even daily) but otherwise car is doing fine. Wondering if new injectors would help. It has now 215 000 km on the odometer and only downside I have seen is the consumption (I can live with that) and the...

Phone cameras nowdays do have better and far more optimized jpeg modifications and enhancements than normal digital cameras. They do have more cpu,gpu and mem to do so also. Lens is the only where they still lose for some of the pocket cameras and that shows when post processing pictures.

Good to know. *Thumbs up*

Fuel pressure sensor change helped a lot. Hesitation is gone and slight judders are almost unnoticeable and much rarer. Lambda1 sensor is also changed and my fuel consumption is now lower than ever. Avg speed 70kmh and 7.1l/100km says the computer. All is good for now

And now the fuel pressure sensor is replaced and booked a service for lambda 1 replacement (had burnt wire against exhaust manifold) and lambda2 (which was supposed to be replaced yesterday) will be replaced if the measurements are off after lambda1 replacement. the linear torquey pull is now...

After valvecover replacement there was some leakage of gasoline to bank 6 plug hole which resulted coil popping out of its mount. Dealership dealed that. Now the car is moving but there are more small problems with it. the engine is slightly cutting out cold and warm. Fuel pressure low...

valvecover I meant. ccv is for crank case ventilation and therefore was a bit right in my mistake :D

I dont have proper experience driving these in wet conditions yet. They are rated A for those conditions so should be good.

Apparently ccv valve had a leak and some more, new crankcase and off we go. 4 total time at the shops 4weeks for various reasons. Had a car from dealer for the whole time (2015 passat) plus one day service shop rental for free (2019 1)series.

Thanks for the kind words. The car is at the shop again (snapped front spring, n0x sensor, MAP-sensor have been already changed) and now something else... idle started being rough (rpms drop to 400 about) and its like skipping cylinder occasionally, whining and clicking. Luckily I bought dealer...

New car

Aaaand it is gone!

Long time since I posted here or commented anything. Nice to see this still somewhat active and as nice as always! I started searching for a bigger estate car after knowing that I am going to have a second child. I also assumed that my mileage per year will decline and therefore in the land of...
