Crasher 3 Posted November 5, 2006 You have an air leak either in the servo (unlikely) or on the feed pipe from the manifold to the servo, basically the servo isn't working and it will also make the engine run lean. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
task 0 Posted November 5, 2006 alright thanks Crasher I'll check that tommorow .does this feed come from the intake man. or the Exhaust . and could this be an electrical problem because that weird noise I was mentioning seemed to go away when I disconect the battery earth ? either way i'll have to send it to a technician but I thought i'll check in here first as it seems that the forum is becoming more helpfull than any vw service I know of.
