🚗 Here we have a VW Scirocco 2.0 TDI (2009 – 101,690 miles) booked in for diagnostics and Engine Carbon Clean as a preventative measure. The owner wanted to look after the vehicle given it was doing a short commute to work.
🔎 Initial inspection found little of note in the engine bay apart from the usual bass note from the buildup present. Thankfully no engine mount wobble on this one.
💻 Initial diagnostic code check looked pretty clear apart from an intermittent code for P159D Oil Level Thermal Sensor Implausible Signal – we recommended this to be changed asap.
📊 Live data looked pretty good across the board with all EGR, DPF and injector data looking fine, but the temperature was a slight concern. Hottest we could get this to was 88°C and with fans on dropped rapidly to 78°C. Given the short journeys then a thermostat may be required to ensure regeneration continues successfully.
👨🔧 On with the clean and the engine soon smoothed out and quietened down and by the end was quiet, smooth and responsive again.
