Nothing too exciting for this video, but if you enjoy seeing the driving side of it, stick around to the last half of the video!
I am taking all your guys advice and will be diving into things to see if it fixes the issue I have with it soon.
Things I'll be checking:
Fuel filter, boost leaks, injectors, heat soak.
(Drop your ideas replying to this!)
do u still have your dpf ? If i understand correctly u have a bit of a jigglish/power loss/delay before the motor reacts ? i had a similar problem on my BRD 170hp tdi, the problem was when the car enters thermal regeneration on the dpf ,it had the same issue on any rpm. If the thermal regen was off there was no problem. check it with obd11 in real time data.
@@BigBanDGosho The DPF was cleaned, aka re***ed for legal reasons hh
One of the easiest ways to find boost/vacuum leaks is to get a piece of small diameter flexible but hard plastic hose (B5 Passat vacuum hoses are perfect)& run the engine whilst listening at one end of the hose as you move the other end along each of the pipes in turn
It will soon show up
audi looking mint 🤌🤌🤌 daily looking less and less like a daily with each video.. thats great
I think wider wheels or even just spacers will make it look complete 👌
@@BWTV tinted windows are a 'must have'
Loved the ‘decat’ of Duff 😂
😂
Got to buy a daily for your daily soon
You know it! 😂
If it feels rough with the powerflex snub mount, adjust the base plate so no part of the rubber touches it. You'll barely feel the engine at idle and find yourself checking the tacho to make sure you haven't stalled out. Also, it will benefit from being tuned because you've changed the airflow.
First rough start seemed like it was a weak battery, however every start from now on it may be slightly rougher as I'm pretty sure it uses the flaps as a slight 'choke' rather than adjusting the fuel inject quantity
Made no difference to how mine ran at all. Mine's a BRE.
@@MrPIEEYEDPIPER interesting. Maybe another issue then
It's mad to see you teaming up with darkside, been following them for years. Ryan's easily one of the most knowledgeable in the VAG tdi tuning scene. Planning on doing some interesting stuff to my new pd150 mk4 soon, using a lot of their videos, blogs and parts for help. And a lot of your vids from your 1.8t too.
They’re mint but they’ve got a massive premium on there prices simply because of there brand
@@rh9224 True, but if you look at the quality and the level of R&D they do on their parts, you can see why they cost more. To me, the premium they charge, makes up for the increase in quality, when compared to some of the poor quality alternatives from competing companies.
@@JDMJake182 that’s true yeah but, a lot of there parts are just Chinese parts with there branding on, not all of them but some
10:16 RIP Plant
Hi there, I suggest you to change the glow plugs and would be a good idea to check the engine mounts included snub mount and gearbox mount as well. Both can cause hesitation and rough start. I have a 1.9 pdtdi, suffered with these symptoms and changing the mentioned parts above the issue is gone. Have a good one! :)
Really love the content bro!
Thank you man! 🤙
Thank you, did my intake as well, the start was rough as hell, car is more responsive now at low rpm
Hi Kurdish, just done my intake on my BRD engine mate. Quick question, did you map software out? My mechanic said no need to do that
@@jamboheart2039 hell no, i have a BRD 170 too, the flow is pretty much the same the engine dont need any adjustment. just dont drop too much gunk in the cylinders or startup is horrible and smokes crazy. if any other questions dont be shy !
Cheers Kurdish, I’ll see how it runs for now although I have had fault code 012546-motor for intake manifold flap (V157) pop up.
Car has been a total money pit mate
@@jamboheart2039 hi i fell you, what you have tho is not related to this flaps in video. Try unplugging de throttle body spray brake clean, delete codes and try. If not working try messing with electronics of this flap, or change the piece it should cost 50€ maximum.
wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/19558/P3102/012546
At low rpm, the swirl flaps closed allow high velocity air into the head still. As rpm increases air velocity increases, swirl flaps can open which then allow full air flow with high enough air velocity.
Which is why, when with just fully open ports, you just loose low end torque.
hey, best regards from Norway, i have just bought B7 a4 avant, 2x S line quattro with 265.000Km on clock, 1st owner, all services and maintence done by audi service here, now me as a second owner want to keep it good looking and in shape, need couple a tips as for my first car ever. interested in those driver seats if i can find them too . :-) keep up the good work for us audi fans
i think with the swirl flaps is there is a vaccum within the actual manifold itself so essentially if you remove them then the vaccum needs more time to accumulate as the area is bigger
Ah yeah I was close! 😂 Makes sense though 👍
Bro I love these video just bought a b7 audi a4 2.0tdi
Thanks man! Nice one!
That was a nice time to clean the valves too . But that is a more complicated thing as time goes to do on a daily
flaps are there to alter the intake runner length for power at low rpm am high rpm so removing them will loose you power somewhere in the rpm's.
Hesitation maybe the exhaust sensor, sure one friend had the bmn pd170 engine same as mine after fitting new exhaust sensor it didn't hesitate.
My plastic manifold sounds ruff with the swirl flaps so I'm looking into the bkd manifold to get rid of the swirl flaps some say the engine runs smoothly, i don't have power issue mine spins 2nd and 3rd no hesitation just after 3000 rpm min seem like a calendar month getting to 4000 rpm where as when i first bought it reved very quickly through every gear.
Great content great video.
Loving the content man, I'm learning a lot
Well done brother! Personally I'd be looking at the map next....speak to darkside and see if they can map it for you, would also create some good content , it's not always about the power gains but more drive ability, darkside would also confirm about the internal boost limiter on those ecu's and the "pd stutter" 💪👊👍
Thanks mate! And yeah I will do, would be awesome to team up properly with them 👌
Nice car I had similar issue with my 1.9 TDI since using revive turbo cleaner it's alot better you might need to get a smoke machine on it to be able to find boost leak
I find with my b7 avant that when changing gear to keep the revs up, yes it will wear your clutch more but it goes well 😁
Got an a4 saloon with the brd engine (170) just hD it remapped after having the oil pump drive replaced and now the car hesitates around 3k rpm in 4th 5th and 6th, changed fuel filter and done the egr delete and still does it.. if you find out what is causing it please do an update video.. keep up the good work 👏
Did you end up fixing this
Hi, did you fix it? Can you share how you did it if soo? Thanks!
@@piovo5222did you fix it? Thanks
@@johnmarck5986 I never had this problem bud was just curious if he ever did fix it
I have a problem with mine, around 2 000 rpm it's choking I just replaced the EGR valve, the DPF filter ben removed before I've bought the car. Still can't find the issue. Any thoughts?
Some do on the transverse 1.9 the snail intake .
My ford has a complicated intake that uses 2 length runners one long one short and a actuator to switch from one and another based on rpm . Which is annoying when it breaks
So far, you have done every mod i did for my audi. I sunk 3k in to the car. In mods and problems.
If you remember, I told you to sell it when you told us you bought a b7
It'll be a bottomless pit otherwise.....
I will be sticking it out :D If things go wrong, it makes for a good video lmao
@@BWTV you could get a boost gauge feed from that blanked vacuum hose.
You'll find if you revert back to a standard map, most of the problems you have like 3k hesitation and hard starting will disappear
@@BWTV theyre great cars. Not had one bit of trouble with mine, mapped dpf and egr deleted. Runs perfectly
Usual issues but there old cars now I have same car n love it I got rid of a s3 8l for family reasons n love it wish I got the rs4 though they to are a money pit
( 14 years vdub specialists)
Hi Steven, I have the BRD engine, got my mechanic to change the inlet manifold. Would I need to map the car now to delete software? My mechanic said no need to map it. What’s your thoughts mate?
Loving the content dude. Need to get the fabia on the channel 😉
100%! I'll give you a message when I've got a free weekend coming up
Dude take a look ad the site maxpeedingrods, there is loads of aftermarket stuff. And cheap.
Thanks for the free shipping pal 👍
Awesome no worries 👍👍
Your "cleaned" DPF made more power than flaps, but sick vid anyways :)
Thanks man 🤙
Good content mate may be informative for fellow derv owners 👍🏼 looks like your coolant could do with a small top up too 👌🏼
Thank you mate! 👌
if you dont have this flaps in your manifoil in working order you will get a fault code and you engine are weaker on the bottom end, i have this engine and the flap are good but you have 2 clean them like in a service so they dont get stuck
Judders most likely injector loom 1st thing to do is remove the cam cover remove the injector connections and tighten up the tiny female connections that connect onto the injectors. if that does not sort it replace the injector loom
Looking sweet 👍
It least looking at your hands you can easily say that you made the test after the work:D. Well i know it may be silly but try diesel injectors cleaner additive to the fuel. It may help with that issue and economy. Cheers mate.
That feeling when you’re doing the speed limit and doing nothing wrong but gotta overtake the rozzers😂😂
Feels illegal but it's not 🤷😂
I had the exact same car and done the exact same mods as you as soon as I had the car mapped it done the same as yours and I never got to the bottom of it I even replaced the turbo and it still hesitated maybe its just one of those things but I know it only started doing when I had it remapped
Anyway, enough criticism. Did you ever get to the bottom of the hesitatition problem?
Deleted my inlet runners on my astra h , I notice minute more intake noise, plus engine revs up quicker. Yet to see any fuel economy gains
Check on vcds measuring block 11 and see if it's boosting correctly
Okay will do 🤙
My car is doing the same in 3rd and 4th gear it's like hitting a flat spot .. someone mentioned to me could be a boost leak or maybe exhaust
One Sweet Looking Car!!
Take the intake back off and clean the backs of the intake valves with brake cleaner and a nylon bottle brush that should solve the hesitation
I enjoyed that.
What turned out to be the problem?
Another good mod, tho I do believe that hesitation could be the clogged vnt or the bad n75, also noot DV or blow off on a car with a vnt turbo :)
I'm gonna clear out the fuel filter and if not I'll then check the n75 🤙
@@BWTV yeah another good idea, have you changed it? If not get it changed it fix's alot of issues, love seeing the tdi getting some love
Not yet! Thanks man
I got the same engine on A6 the flaps are not a problem on them engines i think the flaps are made from metal . BMW have that problem, flaps are made from plastic.
Next job for me! Doing all the bits!
Ps, have you checked your injectors? Mine had the same issue, one injector was starting to fail!
Instagram: that_silver_audi__
I haven't, did you have to replace it or do you think a cleaner will work? 😄
i get wheels spin in 3rd gear in TT :D
Nice video dude. I have the same problem. That is, if the butterflies are removed and it is constantly left open, there will be no problem that more air will go to the turbo; It will also have a difficult start each time; I want your help thank you.
So I believe from researching this issue, it is the engine speed sensor. I'll be changing this on the weekend and getting the video up next week so hopefully that resolves it! 🤞
@@BWTV Thanks for your answer. I will wait for you although I think you should not change the manifold and put without butterflies because I believe that putting more air in the turbo would create a problem.🚘👍🏻 in the meantime my car is with cvt transmission
Doing the inlet mani conversion on my octavia pd170 octavia vrs this week hope all goes well haha 😁😁🤔
Easy to do! ✌️
@@BWTV it was just the cutting malark i wasnt sure on hmmm but unsure if ill have to do it on mine like yours
Maybe change to a different plug, it seems like your loosing ignition at higher rims. Just a thought.
It’s a diesel
That’s a flat battery or somethings Tight starter etc.
Clean engine 👌 nice job.
Your coolant is low bro check the coolant flange for leaks on the back of the head
Hi could you send me the instructions you got with the manifold? I’ve got the plastic manifold will need modification.
Hi love the video how do you get the turbo induction sound on your car have you got a dump valve
How long it took you to remove and install ?
Wish my BKC engine was transverse, need to take my manifold off again as I think it’s leaking AGAIN lol 😳
Get it engine carbon cleaned will make a big difference 👍🏽 will clear carbon from the turbo and intake and exhaust valves so will be smoother and more responsive after 👌🏽
Sounds like a good idea!
Hi what will carbon cleaning clean on this engine and is it the one when they put some fluid thing through the intake or something thanks
Thanks for another ace vid
Thanks for watching 🤙
FYI the oil takes roughly twice as long to warm up, than the coolant does
wrong
@@Barmalejus lol how can I be wrong when I've measured it myself?
Don’t suppose u have the link to egr blank kit u put on mate I noticed the vid has been removed
Hey mate check out my playlist of the Audi A4, you can find the video there with the link 😄
@@BWTV nice 1 following wiv a keen eye mate as I have same just the saloon 170 except mines turning into abit of a money pit got a major hesitation at 3k then boosts after but looking to blank egr, gut dpf and a map to see if it changes things hopefully 🤞🏽
Why pay Darksides prices?
I just bought a BKD manifold off eBay for £40.
It made absolutely no difference to how my engine ran, tickover or at speed.
It wouldn't, it just saves you a headache when one day the engine blows 🤷
Also change your fuel filter mate that’s your starting issue
With the swirl flap delete do you get error codes and the engine management light coming on?
How many miles has this Audi driven? Heard from lots of mechanics that VAG group is a nightmare to maintain...
Did you have to get it remapped after the swirl flap delete??
Nothing worse than working on the car all day and it drives the same. I’ve the same a4 b8 (s-line), would you mind dropping a list of everything you’ve done to your car, looking to slowly get Parts from DSD W/o the wife noticing
You have a metal intake, the problem one are plastic, you did not have to replase your intake. Plastic one can fall apart, aluminium one not.
The swirl flaps were the issue here 👍
Hello , ive a a6 2007 2.7 with bad intake manifold code . Car consume 10 lit in 30 km city , does it consume so much becouse the intake manifold ?
In highway 7lit/100km
I want to put bkd intake on my bmr 170 passat dsg,just wanted to ask what are the difference and are there any difference in performance?
What the “spacer” from darkside deleting?
great content mate! And I do exactly the same when around police, act normal but somehow feel uber guilty!! :D
Thanks mate!
Do you go like me ? when i hear nm tight spec i go bip and done its torqued
What name of.company or Web site who does inlet manifold
From which engine code is the intake manifold?
Did you need to replace the standard clutch with a stronger one?
Nope, the standard clutch is still holding up 👌
Did he delete the Video of the EGR ?
is your turbo stalling?
Really surprised after having the golf you went for an audi estate have you children on the way or carp fishing gear ??
Yo is that a fallout skin on your smart watch? looks cool
Yeah 😄
What power should this car be running now after the egr delete and map? watching the speedo on your first pull seemed like it was still running almost standard power, I had massive problems with my a4 170, have you put it on a dyno yet? Mine ended up having 133bhp "fucked"
Should be near 200, can't really say it feels like it though with the hesitation it's got going on. So hard to sense the power when it's only got from 2-4k of power 😂
I ended up getting a 2005 2.0tdi golf 140 and that's mapped, and that absolutely great, just a shame its not a good to look at as the audi avanta
Dude.........ECU swirl flap table is screaming for an input or a write out .....engine light will come on.
Is this engine a pd 170 or a cr?
does your car accelerate better with the new intake manifold or with the old one? I'm interested in the behavior of the car at lower revs?
1-2k is a considerable loss of power then builds up to a much more punchier kick at 2.5k. Altho there Is less power earlier on, it drives much smoother
@@BWTV I'm planning to install this BKD intake manifold on the Passat b6, in your opinion, is it a smart idea or should I leave the old intake manifold with flaps?
@TuberYou-eh4oy if they have the plastic flaps get rid of them, otherwise it runs the risk of degrading and being sucked into the engine. Plus the big kick in power is more fun 😆
@@BWTV and what do you think about the big kick in power after 2.5k, is that power significantly more felt in % with a BKD branch or with a branch with flaps
Delete the egr thats beter for the engine.
After the delete of the egr, the engine wil sound beter and the gas response is beter. I have done it on my 2.0 TDI en the engine has now 350.000 km on the teller and is stil going everyday
Cool video. Were you not worried that clean manifold might dislodge carbon from inside the head?
Did that cat meow in a British accent?
Type of engine?
Try some Redex injector cleaner
Sweet I'll look into it
@@BWTVI normally put it in at the fuel filter, about half a bottle. Although they recommend putting small amounts in the tank. I think it's stronger when u put it in at the fuel filter. I'm sure it will cure the hesitation issue
Turbo actuator sticky ? 🤔
Possibly
That first start sounded weak, is that battery ok?
Don't think so, takes a while to start when it's cold
@@BWTV no prob then.
Need swirl flap delete map
It's pronounced 'akk-chew-ater' 😂😂😂
Do you run 19's on there mate?
They're 18s but I'm wanting some 19s!
He bro✌
Cost of new manifold?
£120 Inc vat
Why have u taken down egr delete?
Check out my playlist of the A4, you can find it there 🤙
@@BWTV ahh found it cheers
Your getting lag after gear change 🤔 you sure its not the clutch slipping slightly 🤷♂️
I know it's not the clutch (thankfully) because the revs don't climb, it's like they bounce
10mm socket...always the 10mm.
9:00 Damn boiy, that's a thicc bboiy
