#35: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Mar 10, 2011 12:12 pm ---- The silver hose is for the EGR/air injection system. I never quite worked out which way the air went. It basically feeds air from the inlet into the exhaust or vice versa.

Bloody car, so today i have replaced the lmbda sensor, map sensor , air temp sensor and air idle controll valve still cant work it out and its getting expensive
on the gti throttle body at the back of it there are 2 hoses 1 comes from the right hand side and goes to the head and the other 1 goes off to the left and dissapears, questin is what does that one on the left do?
#37: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Sat Mar 12, 2011 10:33 am ---- Scan it with Peugeot Planet not a crappy Snap on
#38: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: leigh_boy, Location: EastbournePosted: Sat Mar 12, 2011 10:36 am ---- .... really don't think that will help as there are no faults listed

I think the left one goes to the fuel tank or the charcoal filter in the inner wing.

#41: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: leigh_boy, Location: EastbournePosted: Sun Mar 13, 2011 5:21 am ---- any other sugestions? i have noticed that the tail pipe girgles every now and again, and seems to have water spitting out, i know its not head gasket before any 1 sugests that its more like condonsation but seems to be there all the time but doesnt help with this weather.
#42: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: leigh_boy, Location: EastbournePosted: Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:09 am ---- new video of how it runs at the tail pipe end
any inputs welcome
#43: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:32 am ---- if you have water comming from the exhaust constantly then water ust be getting into it somehow (thats physics lol) and the coolant is the only water in the engine... are you certain your HG isnt gone? it could be water getting into a cylinder causing one to misfire every now and again, causing that popping noise and the fluctuating revs..
#44: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: leigh_boy, Location: EastbournePosted: Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:40 am ---- ye hg os fine, water level stays the same ans the water spits from the exhaust does not taste like coolent
#45: Re: Throttle Position Sensor ( now with video of problem) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:45 am ---- are you sure your running it enough to get all the water out of the exhaust? mine takes a good half hour to stop steaming in cold weather.
ive got a very similar problem atm, the revs fluctuate like that, but they also drop veeery slowly and bounce up and down when you press the brake lol. i know how fooking annoying they can be to try and sort out!
