No Acceleration, car in limp mode?

[Suffolk]

Not the coil pack, it says engine malfunction workshop on display. Don't even have enough power to drive it up car ramps.

SO you have changed the coilpacks?

Clear the faults and start it up again to see what's still there. Might need the throttle body aligning?

Did you take out the sprint booster with the ignition on?

What did the ross tech wiki tell you to look at?

[Suffolk]

i think it might be throttle body.EPC light is on.Took out the sprint booster with car off and changed the coil pack.Will need to find out have to do a throttle body alignment with ross tech cable.

Unplug the accelerator pedal and clean the contacts and replug, did the trick in my Jetta. Had intermittent combination of EPC & CEL no power on and off.

[Suffolk]

that's the first thing i did with no luck. I just turned the car on and the epic light went off and heaps of oil and smoke came out of the exhaust. Calling tow truck tomorrow morning i think.

Another update: all faults gone, but heaps of smoke from exhaust, turbo gone.

What colour is the smoke?

[Suffolk]

White, shouldn't be blue if turbo?

[h100vw]

White, shouldn't be blue if turbo?

If the turbo had done the seals, it would be pumping tons of smoke out. And it would make your eyes water. The smell of burnt synthetic oil is awful. The smoke would hang in the air for ages.

If it's black, it's over fuelling.

If it's white doesn't smell bad and dissipates quickly, then it's probably water. Either condensation in the exhaust or blown head gasket.
