What code reader are you using..?? Mk6 is "NOT" OBD-II compliant, so most of the newer readers won't work.

Usually code P0149 accompanied by one or two others is the timing solenoid failing.

I have Delphi diagnostic on my laptop. it says it covers the vehicle

what would you suggest please.

We use and recommend Forscan and a "V-Linker" cable.

Forscan is free to download onto a Windws laptop.

If you're not getting the P0149 fault code, the timing solenoid may still be OK.

Which engine do you have..?? 75, 90, 115, 120, 125 or the 135 TDCi..?? Which fuel pump do you have if you have a TDDi..VP-30 or VP-44..??

to be honest mate I dont know.
the reg number is yr06mtv. used to be able to look this stuff up online. but now I have no idea. also have no v5 yet for it

if the valve is good then where do I look the thing smells like to much fuel getting in .


thanks mate

If it's a TDCi then you're wasting your time with a timing solenoid. Only the TDDi's have them.

Do you have wires going to the injectors..?? What is written on the outer door trim..?? Does it say 90 or 125 etc...
