    leaky head valve tolerance?

    have just cracked off injector pipes and no3 makes no difference. so im guessing its losing compression on that cylinder. lots of grey smoke which i think is unburnt fuel, and engine is vibrating all over the place.

    would a crack between valves cause water loss and steam out the exhaust pipe?

    booming air box 300tdi???

    haven't heard that one, will give it a go, also saw a youtube vid holding paper over tailpipe, if it flaps (gets sucked back to pipe) there is a valve problem, so will give that a go too. are there any good ways to cure a sticky valve, or is my head coming off (again)

    booming air box 300tdi???

    AAAAGGGGHHHHH!!! this is driving me nuts!! so removed all airbox pipes from wing to turbo and STILL booming!! so recap booming when revved. when stationary can here it a little but more so when driving. dip the clutch and its gone! noise is louder in driving seat and def quieter in rear seats...

    booming air box 300tdi???

    collet was next to valve spring so yea retrieved and re fit as its only a few weeks old. also still looked new! right, so next thing to try is removing air intake pipes right up to turbo! i will update when i get results!

    booming air box 300tdi???

    air filter is new. is it safe to drive it with no pipe on the inlet of the turbo? if so i will do that as it could eliminate any intake pipe problems or vibrations!
