Kristianskaffe's MK7, 2.4 TDCI, RWD

I think I've found it. Just need to make my priorities as I also have an oil leak and if I just can rely on my brake but the heater controls are not working then I'm fine for now

[Kristianskaffe]

Is this suppose to hang loose? I can't really seem to find where it ends/connect.

Can you see what the other end goes onto?
Can check if it's got vacuum at the end you have, and plug it for now.

Funny thing.. If we blind the T with a small tube (5 cm long) with a bolt in it, it doesn't work. The pressure drops and the brake goes solid.
If we fit a manometer on a tube that's about 1 meter, the pressure rises instantly and stays.. So for now I have a pressure manometer under the bonnet

I seem to have found the oil leak. Not the best place I guess!!
It seems to be coming from the top, where the injectors are.
I'm on my mobile phone now, so you'll have to bear with me.

It's the injector in the back, closest to the cabin (of course) and we have air blasted it dry 2 times with brake cleaner. After a small drive there is oil on top by the injector.

So I've read about you all having so much fun with the injectors and this is the hardest one I guess, but has anyone experienced this and can help me with what to do? Is there any easy way to get to the injector, special tools or?

The picture is the injector in the front, but shows where the oil is leaking out.

Sorry, here

It's very difficult to see the end of this... Holy cr*p..

I found a tow bar module hanging behind the seat the other day. Didn't have time to look at it.
At the mechanic I took it apart and it was all rusty. I sprayed the connections and green matter almost ran out from both the box and the wires/connection. Two pins in each corner was very rusty and after spray they now look like copper and seems to have very poor connection.
My cruise control doesn't work after this... The funny thing was, thst I didn't use the cruise control until driving down to the mechanic and with the cruise control on, it seemed that my turbo was working... The cruise control switched off if I used the right indicator! Oh man... I shield receive the 2 new inner things for the rear lamps tomorrow... But it looks like I I'm in search of a new towbar connection, both parts. Sigh...

The oil leak looks like your injector copper washers are shot.....best to replace them before it ends in tears. Are the clamps/bolts loose??

You may need to re-cut the seats too.!!

Thanks!
Clamps/bolts loose? What to wiggle?

I'm not sure what you mean by cutting the seats?

Might as well clean while all the loose interior bits are of.. So everything went in the dishwasher The grey plastic as well as the 3 on top (2 of them that can "open" and the one that flips and has 2 cup holders... Or as in mine a nasty ashtray)
The black ones goes pale obviously.. But they just need something to freshen them up.. The grey plastic turned out quite clean

.... (very subtle yeah)
