Thanks Jasonj for your time and help. It was number 4 on your list. a bad coil. I got a new diagnostic tool and it showed number 4 cyl and the counts of misfiring on that cyl. The misfiring count just kept going up. I swapped the ignition coil from cyl 4 to cyl 1 and the misfire count shifted to cyl 1. Fitted 4 new Bosch ignition coils and rechecked on the scan tool, no more misfires detected and all fault codes have disappeared/gone. I put the 3 old working ones in the boot with a small tool kit for next time. For any one reading this that are short for cash you can just change the bad one for a new one although the others are just as old so it's good practice to change them all once confirmed the coil pack is faulty. Thanks again

Audi A4 2.0T FSI B7 Manual. Before this happened I had no codes and the car ran perfect. I drove the car yesterday and about 1 mile into my journey I lost most power and the engine is running very very rough. I only drove it at 30MPH before this happened. I have the engine check light flashing. I scanned for fault codes and got all of these together. P0299, P2181, P2309, P0300, P0304 fault codes What can cause all these codes together? What should I check for first? Thanks

What is the correct resistance reading across the 2 pins on a genuine 06F109257C N205 valve? Thanks

Hi Peter, How are you taking the tension off the tensioner to fit the belt?

The car was given to me by my Son with a load knocking noise from the rear of the engine. I replaced the chain and tensioner only to find that when the engine was turned by hand the intake cam would play catch-up with a slap noise. I replaced the cam adjuster on the exhaust cam with a third party one and this problem was solved. So I thought. I purchased an Obdeleven scan tool and got following. block 91 and 93 are below. Engine up to temp. Block 91 Engine speed 720rpm camshaft adjustment intake bank 1 5.9% camshaft adjustment intake b1 (specified) 28.00KW camshaft adjustment intake b1 (actual) 27.00kw to 27.50KW Block 93 Engine speed 720rpm Engine load 15.5% Phase position bank 1 intake -13.00KW (It is -15.00KW when cold). Engine sounds ok. Reading is way off. I have dissembled and doubled checked all my marks on the chain, the cam adjuster and the intake cam sprocket. Everything is dead on correct. I will attach a pic of the cam lobs. Do they look about right? Thanks

Did you find out where the oil is/was leaking from?

The person who owned the car before me mangled the center of the poly bolt. I had no choice but to take the cam cradle off to fix the problem. I need to fit a new cam seal on the end of the exhaust cam shaft. Can I put the seal in place and then torque the cradle down onto the seal? I was hoping to avoid having to take the bumper off because the brakes are seized and the car is very near to the wall. This makes taking the bumper off impossible. Thanks
