I send my petrol injectors for testing and cleaning. All good nothing out of specs. After that, I took a chance and go for an MOT as no smoke reappeared since I am regularly using petrol and LPG. On emission testing, the left-hand bank is a little over the limit on petrol only. Right side ok...

Ok, so I have some news. I ordered a test kit for exhaust vapors in the coolant. The test did not show any (no color change) after 30 minutes. Also, I lose only a very small amount of coolant so I think it drips from some hose after all. The first thing I do every time I have any problems with...

I turned off the LPG immediately once I spotted the smoke and drive only on petrol since then. I drain a small amount of oil. Oil looks without contaminant and smells only like burned oil. I start a car briefly today after sitting in the garage overnight. Some white smoke after 5 or 10 sec...

Coolant not dropping or maybe dropping so little and slow that it is not obvious. Where can I find a leaking vapouriser? I checked all fluid levels and oil seems to be too high and I know it has been right at the max a few days ago.

Hello everyone. L322 2005 4.4 M62tub44 with 255000km. After some lean codes L0171 and L0174 I replaced all gaskets and hoses on the intake along with the PCV separator (Febi Bilstein) valley pan gaskets multiple o-rings coolant hoses etc (Only two things that I see a problem during repair were...

Today after another erase of error code engine light lights on and stays there until I delete the code again. It lights on right after I put gas pedal to the floor when I try to speed up uphil. No turbo effect happened and engine just went to crazy high rev. What shoul I check or replace.Code p1e30

So front left sensor has been replaced and also my left break has been repaired. TC kicks in more often now. Please look at video below. It is clear demonstration of 4x4 behavior.

If this setup will not harm anything I can live with some delay to rear wheels.

Yep it definitely act like vw transporter in the video. Looks like vcu needs some ,,acumulation of energy” to transfer momentum to the rear.

I have new findings. It is really strange. I was at the track again and if I push throttle pedal lets say 25% down the front wheels spins in a muddy hill and rear nothing. But if I push it over 50% down then rear wheels starts to spin as well. Also we discovered that from my 3rd atempt to go...

I did that test. Great guide by the way. My result is 53s 4.1kg weight.(car was still for 3hours after short trip) Then I went to local offroad track and find a little hill. Went straight up and right from beginning car stops and left front wheel spins like no tomorow and right one has TC...

Hi Nodge68. Thank you for that information. This is what I looking for and you confirm this to me. So only thing that can fail in this case is VCU. I had reconditioned one with some guarantee. Is there any easy way to check if my wheel speed sensors are working correctly?

No noise at all. I look at the car myself and my friend drives it. I ordered both front sensors and I will replace them. Also my front left caliper is stuck a little bit some times so I will repair that as well. I will try to spin the wheels once it will by up in the garage and we will se if...

I did what you adviced. Can you look at video and tell me if this is normal state?

Hi. Thank you for your answer. It looks like only one front wheel spins much more probably due to failed speed sensor. So if I replace faulty sensor then both wheels should spin and IRD will give power to rear wheel. Am I get it right?
