West Midlands Diagnostics

Post by Batch21 »

Are there any 620 Ti owners in the Birmingham South area that could help me do some diagnostics on my Ti?

There's a few niggly issues with it and short of taking to a garage for them to charge me a fortune to tell me "it's a sensor problem" or something like that, i'm not really mechanically equipped to diagnose myself.

Bit of clutch judder here, bit of hunting/kangaroo'ing on gentle throttle there.

Could be anything!

thought at one point the gearbox was on its way out but turned out to be the clutch

juddering is more than likley clutch. One of the springs has prob broken, just had this problem myself and the hunting is gonna be an air leak more than likley the rubber part on the throttle body as it cracks overtime allowing air to leak into the intake when the engine moves.

Hmmm,

Ok, that's good advice guys, thanks. I've got a slave cylinder recon kit which i'm gonna fit over the weekend, to sort out my low bite (might also be clutch though) and i'll check all my piping (ooo'err) to see if i can see any cracks (ooo'err again).

You might need to have a look at that link when bleeding the system after you fitted the new slave cylinder.
