dave88sw Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It sounds like you have a 300tdi edc engine. If this is the case, yes, you will still need to replace the throttle sensor. If it's not an edc engine, your problem is not electric, the non edc engine is entirely mechanical fuel injection so any issues with hunting (revs up and down) are down to the fuel injection pump.

Must be an EDC model since it has fault codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy 64 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Yes it is a edc , i was told to check the wiring on the left side under the glove box it seems to be clean and dry , so i am at a loss it tick's over OK but once you put the revs on after a little while it starts to to fluctuate . Revs up and down. Thanks again for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
