Why, oh why, does my TDi not fly!!!
« on: May 01, 2012, 07:39:19 pm »
 :laugh:

every day, i start her up and she either wants to sprint to the moon and back or she doesn't wanna play ball....

doesn't matter if i start her up cold or hot, left for 24 hours and started her up she wants to go places.... left for same amount of time and she says no.

its like the turbo doesn't like working sometimes, anyone else have this?

its like its a different car every day  :confused:

just wanted to share that  :grin:

Not clued up on this but is there a system on the Tdi that needs for journeys to be longer for the system to 're generate'? Deisel particulate filter (DPF)?

Or maybe the EGR getting coked up? A mate had intermittent issues on an a4 tdi with a coked EGR
