Fair enough Tom. What is this common fault that I am not aware of?

So it’s a common fault on the 2.0 tsi engines only, the description for the fault is runner flap position sensor signal implausible. The reality is it could be a number of things on a poorly designed intake manifold that can go wrong and give this fault. I have bought a new intake manifold today for about £120 & also a set of injector seals and the tool to replace them. I’m hoping to repurpose a shot blaster and 3d print a nozzle for it to use walnut shell to clean my intake valves whilst in there

My reason for buying new is because my current one is faulty, and it’s quite a bit of effort to change it, as it’s a common fault my thinking is there’s a reasonably high chance of the 2nd hand one from a breaker also being faulty.

id get my money back if it was faulty, but it would take me getting it on and fitted to know this.

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a new intake manifold (U.K.) can anyone recommend where to buy from? I’ve seen some good prices on AUTODOC but also seen very bad reviews.

what do you recommend? 
 

best regards

Tom

Hi,

bit of an ask but anyone know where I can find a drawing for the standard exhaust system? Including turbo flange. Id like to draw my own and have it made as it will be infinitely cheaper than having a miltek or similar, with the benefit of being unique also.

thanks 

Tom
