    Thanks for the great video, the only one I found that identified the root cause. My 2010 Jetta 2.5L was throwing a random check engine light, then finally started running in limp mode, not going over 3000rpm. G71 and G61 error codes. The parts are cheap enough so I replaced both and back to normal. I hope it also cuts down on the oil consumption too.

    Here is a tip for you good people dealing with this p0106 issue. Check your intake manifold bolts, they may be loose. A loose intake manifold can contribute to a code p0106. Upon doing this, clean the inside of the intake manifold, clean out your throttle body, clean out your hoses & check your intake manifold bolts. Throttle body - torx 30 Intake manifold bolts - either a 6mm hex or a torx 40 (8 inch or longer "Bit" works best to reach) Clean with throttle/intake cleaner For map sensor, clean with map sensor cleaner and let it dry for at least 15 minutes. Map Sensor cleaner can be bought at walmart/autozone/oreily Clear out your p0106 with an obII reader or disconnect & reconnect your battery. Good luck and hope it helps you.

Oh and cleaned the throttle body. 2012 VW Passat 2.5L 5cyl 103,000 miles. Drives like entirely different vehicle! I am absolutely stunned! I would have never known to change that diaphragm! Mine had a gap/hole in it and was leaking! These fixes are not bad at all! My Passat is one hell of a machine being slightly over 100k miles! VW/German engineered vehicles are so fascinating! Love VW! My 2013 Tiguan 2.0 TSI 30,000 miles is great too! No problems with that vehicle yet. ✌🏻❤️👍🏻

    Best thing I have done is reset the transmission control... I don't remember exactly how to do that without youtubing but if you get in your car (without turning it on) you'll notice that pressing all the way down the accelerator will click a button. Google after that (because every VW is different) but its something like pressing all the way down on that and clicking the button and then turning the car on (without starting the engine) and holding it for around 30 seconds. And its a reset for the transmission control. Often times resolves awkward transmission shifts.

    Question: I didn't make any attempt to remove the Map sensor and check it due to lack of time, but my PCV diaphragm did have a huge hole in it. I'm wondering if a fuel system cleaner like Red Line will clear out the oil left inside. What do you think?

  • @SkyhookStudios

    @SkyhookStudios

    5 жыл бұрын

    Fuel system cleaners are not designed to perform that job. They are marketed as a fuel injector and or valve cleaner. The issue is that oil doesn't atomize very well and simply running the car will not get all the oil out. The shape of the plastic intake plenum adds to the chances of oil staying trapped at the bottom, where the MAP sensor resides.

    An intake leak beyond the mass air flow could cause it. Generally in my experience, the code is more of a product of the air leak caused by the tear in the diaphragm. I'm sure that oil doesn't help the sensor though.

Throttle body - torx 30 Intake manifold bolts - either a 6mm hex or a torx 40 Clean with throttle/intake cleaner For map sensor, clean with map sensor cleaner..could be bought at walmart.

    Even with a new valve cover/pcv that I did myself...$90..And the new sensor as well as cleaned out the hose from the pcv valve the code still comes back and everything is dry. It's a permanent code with how they made that law I believe in 09 for emission inspection purposes..I'm finding that getting rid of permanent codes is the hard part even though the car is fixed. I had 4 other permanent codes as well when I picked up the car which was in great condition but needed some help. It had a broken chain tensionsor which set off many sensor permanent codes. I fixed all that myself as well as replacing both chains and guides and tensionsers...Only one permanent code so far has taken care of itself although the car now runs as new again...grrr...its not easy to get rid of them when they go that far. My car only had 80,000 miles on it when I bought it and as I figured just poor maintenance. Wrong oil, not having oil changes on time etc. Luckily after cleaning under the valve cover by hand for a couple of days with the light later of old oil and some gunk, then flushing the engine with the Liqui moly engine flush everything is good again. Compression is good, no exhaust smoke and power is good. Did the DSG filter and fluid as well and of course new ignition coils and plugs to finish the complete tune up. I got the car at a very good price as expected with the issues it had and had it on the road running great in a couple of weeks after work project...Great car,,but those permanent codes can be a pain to get rid of. Trying other methods I've researched as well to clear them too...Wish me luck...really like the car. The money we save being able to do our own work is unbelievable with what VW wants to charge for simple fixes.

    There's 2 sensors & several other things that can cause that code. VW made an upgraded Secondary Air Injection Pipe for VW/AUDI part# 07K198125. I have a 2012 VW Jetta 2.5L I bought used & luckily it had already had the upgraded pipe installed. I actually bought the pipe & went to install to realize this. The new pipe has a new sensor "VOLKSWAGEN 07K906051". This pipe & sensor is located on top of the motor just right of the block. The sensor this guy showed in this video is located on the Manifold. It's important to understand how the pvc system functions. The diaphragm separates' the oil & air & when it breaks it causes oil to drain down into the manifold & get burnt & cause carbon buildup on the throttle body. So if the diaphragm was bad it's good idea to replace the 2 sensors that can get contaminated or clean them at least & then see if the throttle body has carbon build up & clean if necessary & then behind then behind the throttle body you can shine a light down into the manifold & look for oil & clean it. There was a bulletin released by VW because the p0106 code was showing up in a lot of shops. Here's the bulletin copied & pasted below. I've been dealing with this code on & off for 2 years. It comes & goes & doesn't cause any major driving issues but so I'm going to pull the manifold cover off & make sure everything is clean before adding new sensor's. Those diaphragm's seem to tear easy & while I love my Jetta this is a stupid design. VW P0106 Diagnose and fix VW P0106 Shops are reporting a high incidence of VW P0106 trouble codes. And VW has issued a service bulletin 24-18-02 to address a VW P0106 or P3078 trouble code on the vehicles listed below. P0106 is Manifold Abs. Pressure or Bar. Pressure Range/Performance and P3078 is Throttle Valve Control Module Air Flow at idle too Low. Vehicles affected by VW service bulletin 24-18-02 2008-2009 Rabbit 2.5L (CBTA, CBUA) l 2008-2014 Jetta, Jetta SportWagen 2.5L (CBTA, CBUA) l 2010-2014 Golf 2.5L (CBTA, CBUA) l 2008-2014 Beetle, Beetle Convertible 2.5L (CBTA, CBUA) l 2012-2014 Passat 2.5L (CBTA, CBUA) l Cause of VW P0106 The VW P0106 code is usually caused VW P0106 cause is carbon buildup in throttle bodyby carbon buildup on the throttle body but the carbon buildup can be caused by a faulty PCV valve that allows excess oil to pool in the intake manifold which then damages the MAP sensor. Do NOT make the rookie mistake of automatically replacing the MAP sensor because this may be a simple case of carbon buildup inside the throttle body. Diagnose root cause of VW P0106 Remove the air intake duct from the air filter. Manually open the throttle plate and check for carbon buildup Next, shine a light into the intake manifold and check for standing oil. If you see standing oil, you’ve got a problem with the positive crankcase ventilation system-see below. If there’s no standing oil, remove the throttle body from the intake (you’ll have to buy a new throttle body gasket) and clean the carbon buildup using a rag and spray throttle body cleaner. DO NOT SPRAY the throttle body cleaner directly onto the throttle plate shaft. The spray can seep into the electronics and damage the throttle body. Always use a rag. Reinstall the cleaned throttle body. Clear the code and test drive. If you find oil in the intake The crankcase ventilation system is designed to remove blowby gasses from the crankcase and route them back into the intake to burn with the air/fuel mixture. The ventilation system on these engines is designed to separate out any oil vapors from the blowby gasses. When the oil separation system fails, oil doesn’t get separated from the blowby and it settles at the bottom of the intake. The MAP sensor is located at a low spot and oil can enter the sensor, causing it to fail. Remove the vacuum line from the MAP sensor and check for the presence of oil. If you find oil, replace the MAP sensor. But you’re not done yet. Perform the following test on the ventilation system With the engine OFF, disconnect the hose running from the engine to the intake manifold Blow into the hose. You should notice air resistance. If so, then the check valve is operating properly. If there’s no air resistance, the check valve has failed. Replace the PCV valve Next, with the engine running, disconnect the hose from the valve cover and plug it. If the idle quality improves, replace the PCV valve. Remove the dipstick while the engine is running. If the idle quality improves, replace the PCV valve Remove the oil filler cap from the valve cover with the engine running Hold a piece of cardboard over the opening. The engine should suck the paper onto the opening. perly. If the engine fails the ventilation test, replace the PCV valve. VW may or may not sell the valve as a separate part. In some cases you may have to replace the entire valve cover to fix the problem. After replacing the PCV valve Make sure you clean the oil from the intake. Then replace the MAP sensor.

As of today, i've been getting the p0106 code. I've been cleaning the hoses, intake manifold, throttle body & map sensor for the last couple of months which has been resulting in oil residue. I just purchased a new pcv valve, by doorman. Going to replace it again, clean hoses, clean the intake manifold, clean the throttle body and map sensor Sunday, April 16, 2023. Hopefully this works. If not, i am just going to replace the whole valve cover. Maybe the whole valve cover with a new pcv valve needs to be replaced in the first place as stated in your bulletin. I will keep those who interested posted.

    I had the same fault code plus multiple codes for misfires cylinders, the engine was idling really rough, shaking, and vibrating badly. I also noticed a hissing noise, which I suspected was an exhaust gasket leak coming from the left side of the engine. I was thinking for a moment, what a coincidence? Anyway, I replaced the PCV diaphragm which was burst wide open, clean the MAP sensor in the intake as it was full of oil. No luck. Then, while I was running the engine, I increased the rpm to approx 4000 and I heard a pop. Stop the engine, had a look, and surprise, one of the plugs installed on the left side wall of the engine (by the cooling fluid reservoir) was missing. Oil was spitting out from the hole. They are called actually camshaft caps. That was the popping noise. The hissing noise, I assume it was actually from that plastic plug, and probably when I increased the rpm, the pressure just popped it right out. Waiting for the part now. I ordered two as I will preventively replace the other one too. I Will update soon.

Anyway, I removed the crankcase cover and I found the plug inside, resting by one of the valve lifters. I could re-install it but I bought new aftermarket ones and installed it. I did apply some RTV sealant on it, just in case. So, the main culpit was the PCV diaphragm, second, I found oil in the throttle intake, (there is a sensor there too), removed the throttle body, cleaned it up, and third issue was the plastic plug on the engine left-hand side. The plug was very dificult to troubleshoot as the engine was running soo rough , I thought there was piston broken or worst. Since then, she runs perfect. All these were induced by the PCV diaphragm which I never replaced it in more than 10 years. Some people are replacing them every few years. They are cheap and easy to replace.

    You might be able to get away with that if the PCV is torn. The only difference between intermittent and permanent is the failure rates. In order to set a light the code has to fail 2 times in a row. Intermittent means that it has passed atleast once since setting the light.

    The 3078 and the 106 could very much be related. They both can be triggered by intake air leaks possibly caused by a ripped pcv diaphragm. As some other posts have suggested, VW has a campaign out for the P0106 code which involves reprogramming the ECU. I don't think that's gonna fix your issues since you have more then just the 106 code. Secondly, the 322 code is for the engine speed sensor and is most likely intermittently faulting. I say that because the engine speed sensor (aka crank sensor) will prevent the vehicle from starting if bad and will stop the engine immediately if it goes bad while running.
