Engine Sounding Like Ite Put Put Puting

[andrewl6527]

can anyone help me please?

i have a 02 plate ford galaxy 1.9tdi

last night something went wrong. the engine started to make a put put puting noise when idiling and driving, it did lose power but i regained it a bit i got no more than 45mph.

its done this before and ive had it checked on a vag-com computer and it found No faults. ive taken off the air box and the noise is still there so it sounds as if its coming from the pipe from the air box to the enging.

 

 

Please can anyone help???????

 

thanks in advance andrew

thought id let you all know.

the cam shaft has been replaced and its all fixed now. cost

Make sure that you use vw 505.01 PD compatible oil. Use of lesser oils is what leads to camshaft wear, and sometimes this can be very rapid. Check the oil used by whoever repaired your vehicle.

Hi andrew,

I think i may be in need of your advice. ive been havin a similar problem to yours (as u had). as soon as a start the engine, the car starts making a load helicopter like noise and has lost alot of power. and this is since ive been to the garage and had a few parts replaced. the guy dont have a clue whats wrong with it. Please advice me of a good place i could get my car fixed.

 

Thanx
