Fantastic trick, thanks for sharing! Worked for me and saved me a lot of hassle and worry thinking it was the high pressure pump!

Thank you, the ball bearing trick worked for me. I was able to identify the faulty injector straight off the bat.

Great diagnosis Sandy , scary moments when undoing the injector bolts on these , you cant beat the old ball bearing trick , but as you say scoping it would be nice to see , but fuel is so expensive, blanked off , saves fuel 😉🤣🤣👍👍

What is the fuel normal pressure at idle ? I got a6 c7 3.0 tdi is a similar engine and show me 25 000 at idle ...

Good job. Ballbearings and leak-off are the best ways to go. That scope setup will never work in this situation. Ecu needs engine rpm to build desired fuel pressure to command injectors on. So the pressure is all over the place and there so there will no be an injector command or will here and there unclear.... Good find Cheers!

Hi Robert I've no idea, launch is painful with VAG

1:56 SWORD might be 'Short Word' meaning a 2 byte integer capable of representing a value from 0 to 65535. I also saw UBYTE on that screen which probably means 'Unsigned Byte' which could represent a value from 0 to 255.

Hi Sandy, you mentioned the ball bearing trick in this video in order to diagnose which of the injectors is faulty. Would you be able to explain that in some more detail please for someone who’s not as mechanically inclined? Thanks in advance and awesome vids!
