Could someone please invite me to the CFCA group? I had a membership pending for a few weeks but now I’m in the position where I’ve got an £8.5k quote for the new engine? Thanks, Oli
Correct, I believe the alum’ body is plastic coated but this protection doesn’t last. To make matters worse the CFCA design is a combined oil cooler/filter/EGR valve/cooler.
An engineering disaster waiting to happen, easy to rectify though.
Acid resistant stainless steel is used, no corrosion...
I have the CXEB engine so can’t comment on the CFCA. Based on my service records, My EGR was replaced due to a split pipe emitting exhaust fumes rather than the leaking cooler.
And yes, it was mapped out, along with the adblue as a precautionary measure. Unfortunately I don’t have money to...
Hi all
Just stripped down and rebuilt the engine on a 2016 T6 180 bi-turbo CFCA engine after it failed on the A557 heading for Widnes originally had the van recovered to VW van center Liverpool for repair as I thought it was just a failed injector.
After a couple of weeks, they said it had no...
204 is a 204. I have a 180 CFCA which is the discussion topic, it has never consumed oil. Oil consumption with a CFCA should never be regarded as normal IMO.
I have a 2016 CFCA manual and one thing I’ve noticed is that being in gear either reverse or 1st doesn’t hold it in position on the ramps.
I use reverse with a quick hand brake application.
Unfortunately this appears to be yet another CFCA biting the dust. It's going to be a cylinder head off job to inspect everything, and just hope this one is a cracked head or sticking valves etc, but I think everyone knows where this is heading......
It's not just the actual compression...
...blockmap files. I'm highly confident we can at least narrow down where to look into. More than happy to look into the file to learn which of the sensors belong to "circuit B"
PS. CFCA engine doesn't have exhaust gas temperature sensor 2 - thus the deviating value in freeze frame data doesn't...
...valve would only be noticed by doing a longer (than just one sample) recording. The procedure shouldn't change anything but never checked on CFCA engine - so indeed better safe than sorry.
Interesting - possibly the implausible signal value was captured already when doing startup...
