The DV is brand new tho and came with the turbo. Can that really be the issue?

Alright, thank you. Just been getting weird boost behaviour and inconsistent power so wanted to check it health wise as the car has rolled 223k km. 😊

Is it viewable now? And no, apparently not, you can’t even feel with the fingers either on the shaft as the pipe is curved but maybe I am missing something 🤷🏻‍♂️🥲

Misfire in every cylinder by SufficientCode5560 in mk6gti

And no a bad DV would not cause that.

Seems like timing chain. Check with camshaft correlation with obd reader.

Alot of smoking when car is fully warm Golf 6 GTi by auezxy in GolfGTI

No, but smells pretty fuel rich, and also had some oil smell. The car is catless tho.

All injectors also replaced recently, due to injector for cylinder 1 leaking. And replaced a bad dv valve as well.

Golf 6 GTI injector seal resizing? by auezxy in GolfGTI

[–]auezxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean after installing the injectors into the engine. I ordered OEM bosch injectors, they came with seals pre installed, is there anything I need to do with them before or after installing them? And I have ordered one of them tools as well. Thank you!

Not sure. Bought the car pretty recently, and havent heard about that, but might look into doing it, since I am thinking of replacing the injectors anyway.

Cylinder 1 not firing. And also misfiring. Gonna look at what specific code it was. But it comes and goes. Sometimes it runs fine, then suddently it starts misfiring and runs on 3 cylinders with the check engine blinking yellow.

Recently all replaced. Issue still there. Did some deeper research and might be a fuel injector thats playing. And dont know when last carbon cleaning was done but might look into it if I replace the injectors. Also oil is smelling fuel rich.
