Symptoms;
- Idle hunting between 600-800rpm resulting in a very lumpy tick over
- Stinks of fuel (my eyes are burning)
- When warm and driving up to a junction for example as soon as I stop off throttle the revs will drop so low that the car cuts out.
- Ticking noise which sounds like an exhaust blow
Following on from getting the OBD II up and running on the MK3 the fault codes read are below;
- P0135 O2 Sensor heater circuit Bank 1 Sensor 1
- P0141 O2 Sensor heater circuit Bank 1 Sensor 2
- P0155 O2 Sensor heater circuit Bank 2 Sensor 1
- P0758 Shift solenoid B Electrical
- P1410 EGR Valve position sensor circuit malfunction
- P1765 Linear Shift Solenoid Circuit Fault
I'm thinking there's air getting in somewhere around the manifolds causing the O2 sensor faults, also noticed the Throttle Position Sensor sat at 14.5% without any application to the throttle pedal when looking at the data stream. O2 Sensors all reading 0volts on maxidiag with engine running.
With the ignition ON I cleared the codes and ran a fault code check, immediately threw up the EGR fault. The others all re-appear once the engine has been run.
Where on earth do I start?
