Car was running rough, OK on idle but felt like three cylinders at 50-60mph. Now the cam has been completely rebuilt, just got to stop the turbo blowing off the intercooler pipe...
Not bio related! PD engines are unique in the way they inject the fuel, using individual unit injectors being pressurised by the overhead camshaft. Fine tollerances and high pressure eventually lead to wear of the lifts and cam lobes.

Did it show up any codes like p0303, p0404, p0299. My 2004 Jetta just started running ruff all of a sudden changed filter, added injector cleaner still running ruff. Now at Dealership? I have the bumper to bumper warranty hope they find out what's wrong. I'm still on reg diesel for now but I got my appleseed processor here just have to put it back together for my garage, time and $.
