    Hi
    This car came to me due to misfiring...
    This after, new spark plugs, and ignition coils...
    In this instance, have not repaired it, but have diagnosed it...
    I don't really have conditions to carry this sort of work... so is work for someone else....
    Still, follow me on this video to find out what was the problem!
    Hope you enjoy the video.
    Any questions or comments put them below.
    Like always, thank you for watching!

    Top diagnostics Luis. Being VW's first go at downsizing, these early chain-driven TSI engines can really be a nightmare.

    Also there can be carbon build up on the intake valves as it happens with all petrol direct injection engines. It disrupts the normal flow of air in the cylinder and causes bad combustion, hence the difference in color of the second spark plug. It is a pain to get this intake off and inspect the intake valves. I have seen a lot of this happening and in different manufacturers. On the other hand, usually the timing issue you mention is reflected on the camshaft timing parameters and there is also metallic noise when you start it up for a couple of seconds, from the chain being longer than it should.

    You should do a leak down test, when you set each cylinder to dead center, when all valves are closed, put pressure in the cylinder and watch how fast it leaks out. Then go to the next cylinder... If the leak down test is OK, then most likely you have a chain problem indeed.

  • @xbin87116
    @xbin87116 Před 2 lety +3

    I believe I have the same compression tester and the hose part is off on the actual pressure some of them had the valve on the end and doesn't account for the volume in the hose. I would test it against another tester or use the straight or bent adapter and compare to hose. I believe there was others saying there is about a 20 psi difference.

    10.5:1 compression ratio equals 154.35psi but your result still on the low side. In my opinion, the knick sensors were a bigger clue than you focused on. Timing chain has slipped, or stretched. In light of the rest of its woes, this engibe is scrap.

      I think that your engine was cold during the compression test, they all were 130-140, if you warm it up it would be 150-160 but still low, related to mileage and age.
      But even its perfectly 200 psi, the cracked pistons will not affect this value. You can't see the cracked pistons via camera/scope. You have to take it out and take off the 3 gaskets. Then it will spread to your hand as cracked biscuit.
      The LSPI thingy causing this issue.. Combined with older dsg, i am sure it is related to pistons. Gaskets or the piston itself...

We’re the plugs wet with fuel? If timing is out then they are fuel wet. I m no expert, but had faced these issues and solved ..

      I had the timing problem, with no start. Compression test showed 2 cylinder under 90, and I was told by the mechanic that engine (pistons, rings) gone. Car has cylinder wash symptoms. I asked mechanic , did he do the compression test after disabling fuel injectors. Mechanic said engine need rebuild or replaced.
      I brought car home, checked compression after drying cylinders, they eeee over 140 & 150. Then checked timing with timing tool. It was out. It was easy, on BLG engine, same as BMY, few bolts need to be undone to remove cover plate on side of cylinder no 4 , both camshaft were out of sync. Did the chain myself,
      Culprit was tensioner. And due to which chain jumped few teeth.
