  • After chasing CEL codes for months, replacing the MAF, O2 sensors, plugs and coil packs, we break down and take it to a dealer -- Forgot to mention that after they test drove it, they also replaced the oil dipstick since that was contributing to a leak in the sealed crankcase ventilation system.

    Had the same problem.
    Bought a 1metre of 10mm silicone hose and it solved the problem. It's more flexible than original part

    PCV valve is also a common source of vacuum leaks on some engines and is really easy to check. With engine off, find the tube that runs from your PCV to the intake manifold and unplug the manifold side. Leave the PCV valve side connected. Clean the end of the hose with a shop towel and blow into the tube. You should hear a check valve close and feel pretty immediate air resistance. If you don't hear the valve and there's little or no air resistance when you blow into the tube, you have a bad PCV valve.

    Sometimes on these cars, especially as they age, the engine mounts go bad. Transmission mounts sometimes too. The engine is running perfectly but it feels rough and looks rough too. Some polyurethane engine mounts will not only last longer but give you a much better feedback from your engine while driving. Not saying this is the case here, just a word to the wise before you go to all the trouble of hunting boost leaks.

    My 06' GLI makes that same engine sound... the ticking noise, but now I see that this is actually what the MK5 sounds like.
    Man, it had me stressed tf out

      Please check your measuring blocks 91/93 (any good scanner will do.
      If they are out of spec, make the decision now to change the chain and tensioner. Can't impress on you enough.
      Love the GLI.

    Did the dealer list any part #s on the paper work? Im having the exact same codes and issues.

    • @FearlessMods
      @FearlessMods  Před 5 lety +2

      RCAST I’m sorry. I looked for any service records but didn’t find them. I’ll check one more place and if I do, I’ll let you know.

      Still looking fellas. Going to call the dealer with the VIN to see if they can pull it up. Stand by...

    • @RCAST23
      @RCAST23 Před 5 lety +1

      Thanks Biff. The area that you described i found this Power Brake Booster Vacuum Hose on fcpeuro.com. I think thats the part you were talking about. It will come in tmrw. We shall see. Thanks again.

    I heard hissing from my gti after I turned it off which is why I’m thinking I have one. Did you hear one w urs?

      That was a while ago, but I don’t recall us hearing any hissing.

    Can the oxygen sensors be clean??

    • @FearlessMods
      @FearlessMods  Před 3 lety

      I've never tried that. However, once they're bad, I would assume replacement is the most reliable solution. Easy enough for you to give it a try if you wanted to though!

  • @cjdoc77
    @cjdoc77 Před 4 lety

    Nice! Can you get the part number off of the invoice that they replaced?

    • @FearlessMods
      @FearlessMods  Před 4 lety +1

      cjdoc77 check out the thread. I believe everything you’re looking for is in my reply to RCAST 10-11 months ago. Good luck!

    how did the dealer find the vacuum leak ? and can you give us part number

    • @FearlessMods
      @FearlessMods  Před 2 lety +1

      From a comment 3 years ago: brake booster vacuum hose. Ours was p/n 1K0612041GM. They also pinpointed the leak to the dipstick cracked and not sealing the crankcase (p/n 06F115611F) and some OEM fuel additive (p/n A001780M3). We didn't go for their recommendation to replace the vacuum pump even though they said it was leaking oil ($605...No!). If it ain't yet broke...
