diesel

Hi. I wanted to know if anyone knows someone in Birmingham who can check my cars timing on my diesel pump, or can tell me how to set it up???? Thanks.

Had a couple PM's about this now so I've asked if it would be ok to post this info and it got the OK. All tests/analysis was carried out by Accrington and Rossendale College and Millbrook proving ground Ltd. Ricardo were used to carry out Engine tests. Some of these graphs are a bit beyond...

can anybody shed any light that the mk5 will have a new 1.6 diesel ? i hope so as thats what i would be looking for... 120 bhp with 119 co2... ideal then get it chipped

No, I ain't talkin bout the indian diesel nerd-o-bike which has like 3hp and looks like the bike my grand-dad threw away cos it looked too dated,,, I'm talkin bout this: http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2006/06/19/neander-turbo-diesel-motorcycle/ not exactly a lightning bolt but for being...

Sorry if this thread has already been discussed..... I'm currently trying to decide which of the petrol or diesel engines would be best, when I trade my Altea Stylance 1.6 in for a Leon FR and would like some advice. I'm averaging 10,000 miles per year, as I only have a 10 minute journey...

Has anyone found a fuel-can that fits under the false floor. I embarrassingly ran out of diesel just 50 yards from the petrol station and had to go get 5 litres in a plastic can. The normal plastic 5l can that all garages have seems to be just a little bit too big to fit under the false...

Does anyone know where the hell the little bugger is mounted??? (old school non ecu controlled diesel)

Me again with another newbie question In 27 years of driving and 15 cars I've never owned a diesel nor know much about their maintenance (Yep I'm over 40 as well :redface:) Now got the TDi 130 Sport Always heard the term "Oil burners" for diesels Do they use a lot of oil as...

In fact no way near!!!!! A little background - Having had my 2001 Leon Cupra 180BHP (ex) for 3 years and been more than happy with it, time arrose that a new car was required, as I am now doing more miles (about 60miles a day commuting), I started looking at diesels. Long story short -...

Thought I had better swap this to here from "newbies" if I want to get replies I am actually thinking of a Diesel Cupra 160 Ibiza to replace my nameless car. I'm sure it's all been asked before but I wonder what miles per gallon people are getting. I'm a fairly ordinary driver. I love to...

Just a quick question, I know the FR TDI is down 30bhp (on paper).. (And certainly feels quick) But do they perform comparibly? :p

Autosport have reported: Diesel engines in the World Touring Car Championship will have their performance controlled through the imposition of limits for fuel pressure, boost pressure, and air/fuel mix ratio this season. The move is intended to ensure that diesel and petrol engines can compete...

Hi, You'll have to forgive me if this sounds like a noobie question or has been posted before but I am a novice at this Diesel thing. Just ordered our first Diesel car to be delivered in a couple of weeks, an Ibiza FR 130 TDi, and been looking at the filling pumps and see there are now...

hi everyone i just bought an ibiza cupra R but it comes with a spare engine due to the old owner putting diesel through it and it got replaced with a new one. could anyone tell me which parts are salvagable? im guessing the top end will be fine and the turbo? bottom end will be knackered i...

Hi, Interesting Read In Issue 991 Of Auto Express, Spotted Audi Tt Diesel Due In 2008 Will Be Powered By 2.0 168bhp Engine, Will This Be The Same Engine Thats In Leon Fr Tdi ?. It Does State That It Will Be The Same Engine Thats Used Across The Vw Range. Also States Will Be One Of The Cheapest...

Hi, Do these actually give the claimed figures ? INCREASE POWER BY UP TO +35BHP & +70NM TORQUE!! And are these the ones that just dump fuel ?? These are on Fleabay. Cheers JJ

Hi There Any 1 Got 1 Fitted To There Diesel? Just Wanna No Wot It Is Like To Fit And Stuff As Gonna Get 1 As Performance Will B Major As Will Stop Turbo Shutting Down, 1 For Ibiza Tdi C Forge Do 1!

just wanted to explain my day - yesterday the dpf light came on on my dash. called the dealer and they said i need to rev it to 3k rpm in 4th to clean it out. if this doesn't solve it bring it in to look at. did this and the light went out. this morning the light came back on but now i lost...

Sorry if this has been covered before, but i was just wondering if the Diesel Treatment you can buy is actually any good, or if it will harm my fuel system. (It's the stuff you put in the fuel tank before filling up...) They say you get better MPG and reduced emissions, but has anyone used...
