Mafyou Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Car felt a little less smooth than usual but no big difference. It's not had a full service in a while, so could this be due to spark plugs. This is on my gf's arosa btw. Oil is fine. Except from that I have no idea what i'm doing!

Mafyou Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Fuel consumption is normal so im assuming that's alright i get about 100 miles on half a tank most of which is motorway driving. Any other ideas if these don't work? don't really want to take it to a garage yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 My money is in the EGR valve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiiGoCrazy Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Go boot the arse out of it, or you could remove and clean the EGR pipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafyou Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 That seems easier than faffing about with pipes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
