Okay, so driving up the road earlier (LC), car starts to judder occasionally, then gets progressivly worse. EML starts flashing. Luckily i had my computer in the car, the codes it read were P0303 - Missfire in Cyl 3 So i cleared it, still had the missfire mind.... Drove home later, car was...

I got a Ibiza diesel FR 2004 model. While driving home tonight when there was a big bang and lots of smoke. No engine is very lumpy and not very powerful. Plus very smokey. What could the problem be?

the car seems running clean no smoke when ideal, gentle accelerate, but when half throttle, i can see smoke coming out...., is this normal from a diesel car?

Right started the car up this morning and the cloud of soot that blow out the exhaust was something to behold. So this evening I've plugged the car into VAG Com and done a little bit of logging. The Actual vs request MAF figures are up and down sometimes the actual far exceeds the...

Hi, I’ve got a Leon 2.0 TDI 140 June 08 which now has 24k. The fuel economy was 47ish for about a year but then it decreased to about 41mpg until a few days ago when I only managed about 80miles on £30. There has always been a little smoke on acceleration in 5th and 6th which I have...

Is there an easy way to fix this? (apart from just being a little more gentle on the throttle!) Only reason I ask is because both of my Seats are the only cars I have driven that do it, so I'm thinking there is a connection (Ibiza Cupra and Leon Cupra R) Has to be relatively easy...

I thought it was the inlet air temp sensor physically getting hot (car idling/in traffic) and the ecu thinking the air is hotter than it really is? Or is heatsoak a hot inlet heating up the air as it passes through? An efficient intercooler will lower the charge temps but not really...
