ianskill Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 hi,had this car a while now,its an 05 plate 115bhp. the problem has been happening a while now. car starts no problem,doesnt cut out,and no loss of power is noticed. at low revs,mainly second or third gear,the car is hesistant,like a mis fire,then is accompinied by a sucking/whiring noise, hard to explain really. sounds like it coming from right engine bay side,from sitting behind drivers wheel, thanks Quote

Mirez Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 any ideas please? i did replace the fuel filter,but same effects,thanks Sucking noises are normally vacuum problems, check ALL the pipework down and around that area (there are loads of vac pipes on the tdi) and see if you find a split/perished hose or one thats popped off entirely.

ianskill Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Posted February 4, 2010 hi,i checked all pipes.i have found one vacuum pipe passenger side bulkhead,theres about 3 together.one of these pipes has a small hole,but cant quite get to it to repair,i'm hoping this is the cause of the hesitation. the pipe looks like to have got this damage through rubbing against a bracket i think. will post tomorrow or weekend on outcome,sorry for delay in replying as weather been to crap Quote
ianskill Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) i checked that pipe again today and found it hasnt got a hole in it.as i listened to the engine today i noticed a like scrapping noise which followed engine shake at same time,very slight.this noise is coming from the bell housing.when the noise stops,the engine idles normal, its like something is loose,or is it the dreaded flywheel and could this cause my first problem,the hesitation in low revs?
