Hi , i have a Lupo 3l and im having some annoying problems with this car since i bought it .
1 when engine is cold at idle i have lots of vibrations and clattering noises like the engine mounts are broken, which are not ,so this possibility is excluded .I noticed that at idle rpms are fluctuating from 840 to 861 , torsion value is 0.0 to -0.5 from time to time .I noticed that if i press very gently the gas pedal the vibration and hard noises dissapear like magic , so i raised the rpms at 860 -880 .Best sound of the engine is with the rpms at 880-900 and at this rpms the car is very quite . I have to mention that the vibrations and clattering noises are significant low when the engine is hot , but i still have the clattering noise under torque and when downshifting gears also when gliding in neutral(eco).
I want to fix the problem since raising the rpms is not a permanent fix .
2 My dashboard is showing a very high consumptin then in real life , and i cant find if this is procent or a fixed value;for istance at consumption 4.4 l showed i have real consumption of 3.1 ,at 5.7 the real consump is 4.3 and i had even 6.9 and real was 4.5 .
What i found with Vag that my dashboard is coded with the 1.9 diesel Pd , and the 1.2 pd is not shown in coding , only 1.4 pd and tdi and gas models ;i found this strange even if the coding cant be changed .the tires are new and respect the car dimensions .i also record 0.5-0.6 l/h at idle .
Sorry for the long post
