I have enjoyed your hard work and the way you diagnostic the problem to the core of the problem, not jumping straight to replace the parts..I myself I'm like to find why and what is causing the problem. The fault code is here to give an indication where to start .I really appreciate and happy to see people like you to take your time to digging into it to find the faulty part .Great example and great video and explanation as well. Thanks for your time and effort to produce nice and helpful video. 👍 😊

My god I have never see a injector, leak back so much, another excellent video, thanks

Great video and nice equipment! I personally always start with the injectors cause they seem to be failing most often

Great job Gary you are 100% correct. Spending money where they shouldn’t be. I am Very surprised that scanner does not have the topology interesting. I made a few videos showing this

Good stuff sir....admire the way you have diagnosed the issue...thumbs up

What a nice job thank you for the very instructive video keep this kind of video specially for diagnose low pressure on common rail engine.

Very impressive skill sets a pleasure to watch.

Excellent teacher and diagnostic

Excellent run through. Great video, thanks.

Enjoyed that Gary. Interesting stuff and educational for sure. Thanks for sharing 👍

Very well presented and explained, thourogh clear diagnosis, excellent Thank-you.

Excellent info and diagnostics, thanks.

Appreciate your time and effort 👍🏻

Awesome video Gary, that’s some colourful diesel that customer is using 😂

These videos keep getting better and better. Love the hubitools pressure sensor.

@@intelligentauto737 Hi mate could you please give me some advice , Ive purchased a a3 audi 2lt 140 diesel 2011 from the auctions the guy who had the car before me he bought it in jan 2022 ive looked through all the paper work and he bought a fuel sender (from fuel tank)in january he as also had a new diesel pump fitted as this one on it looks shiny and new,hes also bought a new fuel filter, today ive had fitted a fuel rail with the fuel regulator and fuel pressure sensor onit. bought second hand from scrap yard, ive also had a new fuel filter thrown init I thought it had cured it as for 10 mins my car was flying and driving really well then the coil / glow plug light and engine management light came back on and it went back into limp mode, fault code is P0087 Fuel rail system pressure :to low, gutted.😂😂.its also missing a beat now aswell when stopped at traffic lights or driving. it doesnt konk out but feels like the fuel isnt getting through properly .Im wondering if there is a dodgy connection on the wiring somewere ,not giving up on her yet. when i start it its ok , then soon as it warms up n i try to boot it over 2000 then the coil light comes on and it goes into limp mode, I was on the motorway today it was in limp mode, I turned the egnition on and off to reset it, and i managed to get it running proper doing 80s n 90s in 5th n 6th gear. then 5 mins after limp mode n dreaded coil light again. im wondering if the last HPFP broke then maybe it sent some metal shavings into the fuel injectors, . would really apreciate some advice, if you were near manchester i would of gladly payed you to solve my issue, my mechanic is good but he aint on your level he hasnt got all that gear you got. would really apreciate some advice,thank you some one has advised me the fuel sender is either faulty or the wrong one has been fitted, i cant see euro parts giving the previous owner the wrong one,😂😂 that being said tonight I started her up tonight and some sort of whining noise was coming from the in tank fuel sender,

Hi, I love it, is that like a long pipes syringes with adapters to the injectors? That's what I called an intelligent old school equipment

Good methodical approach good video

Best video ive seen Gary thanks. Any idea what cranking pressure should be? I have a Cay engine wont start after removing and refitting injectors to change rocker cover gasket. Ive ran the diesel purge on diagnostics for a good 5 minutes, ive cracked fuel pipe unions and have diesel there. Still no start. Live data shows cranking pressure 4-5000 psi. Thanks Luke

This is an excellent job you've done and I wish you would be located in Germany because I would not hesitate to bring my car to you. You are probaly one of the last real mechanics. Our Caddy is now nearly 3 weeks in VAG garage, due to the same complaint. They have now changed the LP Tank Pump, Pressure Sensor and Pressure Regulator and telling us now that its probably the High Pressure Pump which they are going to change know. The costs are until this point at nearly 3000€, what a desaster. I hope pump changing will fix the problem, otherwise I think about to contact an ADAC Lawyer and VAG Germany to complain this issue.

Nice video mate wish you where near me I would bring my golf in very hard to find a decent garage that doesn’t just want to fire the parts cannon at your car

Great video intelligent auto, those injectors are so troublesome. We did a set on a caddy last week. Genuine only super expensive

Thanks for another excellent video

Nice educational video. And you’re absolutely right about taking your vehicle to someone you can trust. This is not a criticism to your advice, but my opinion that will not get you anywhere. At least 90% of mechanics who have been self employed for a while, have the wrong mentality and don’t realise that they are no longer dealing with basic things like plugs and points. The problem is, mechanics fail to update themselves and totally believe in what the scanner it telling them, or at least hope that the scanner is right. Anyway, I could go on and on. I really admire you for investing in yourself, both in terms of equipment and knowledge. Keep up the brilliant work. Best regards, Joe.

great video as always , its hard out there the general public hate spending money on new parts because of cost but secondhand or internet reman never seem to work ... its becoming a nitemare

Thank you wish I had the bit of kit you have .

When I removed the fuel return lines from the top of the injectors and turned the ignition on (before starting) fuel just pissed out of the return lines, as if being pumped from the tank pump. Is that normal?

Thank you Sir! New subscriber!

Just subscribed to your channel.keep it coming.

Great Job Teacher

Hi , so am I right in saying on these systems ,low fuel feed pressure should always be about 0.5 bar , pre and post filter , thanks

Thank you for your amazing and inspiring videos, love them. It is always easy to look in the rearview mirror and be hindsighted. But was it perhaps not, faster to start with return from the nozzles? It's easy, tools do not cost that much. Where to start and where to end, it will always be a good question :) (Google translate)

Very good video. DIdn't know about the scrap yard paint.

I see that you are an expert on diesels, I would like to ask you about a vw t6 cxe diesel engine bi turbo, I see the fuel pressure when I turn off the car to drop to 0 bar...shouldn't the pressure rise in the fuel rail initially? sorry but no I build diesel and I have no knowledge

Excellent video. These 1.6 VW engines are a pain fuel delivery wise. Otherwise they are a brilliant van.

Working back to pump in the tank confirmed all was good to the high pressure pump

Question? If you looked at the live data from disney would you see the flaws?

Great logical diagnosis - well done

whats your external pump set up like

Fuel pressure and solenoid duty cycle are inverse of each other high % low psi can you tell on that

Greetings. I like the video, it's great. I just don't understand why you didn't measure the pressure from the low pressure pump to the high pressure pump. if you had measured immediately you would have known that the pressure drops at high pressure

Another great video. Thanks

Great video, nice equipment! Shame the owner didn’t come to you to start with, massive saving of time and money if he had. I’ve changed hundreds of those injectors on CAYC (car) and CAYD (commercial) engines. By using a previously enjoyed part you just spin the wheel and hope. I bet his mate didn’t replace the torque to yield bolt (they will snap and pop a dent in the bonnet when they let go if reused) or replace the adjacent injector (cyl 1) copper base seal, O ring seal and spill union seal, the spring clip retaining the spill union need replacing too after it was disturbed when removing the faulty injector cyl 2. (New seals and clip come with new genuine injector) Bet no sign of the bore cleaning tool to make the ports spotless for refitting to prevent leakage or coding in to the engine ecu for changed injectors 🤣. He prob allowed diesel to get on the cambelt during the repair which will kill it in no time. The resistance goes high causing the initial misfire, but with your one leaking back like that, I’ve only seen two fail like that.

These brand new injectors are costing approx £600.00,then most people will have to pay someont to fit it. Plus new stetch bolt and two new copper washers,as injectors are removed as pairs. These 1.6 tdi injectors have a very bad reputation for reliability,and you have four of them.
