Anyone clued up on vw pd engines? Any vw techs?
As title had an issue with my golf pd150 going into limp mode. I've fixed that as it was the turbo vains sticking. I have an active error for fuel temp sensor open circuit. Someone has removed the fuel temp sensor replacing it with a normal bit of fuel pipe it normally sits in the fuel return line. I've no warning lights and the car drives fine but what dose that sensor control. Will it affect the mpg as the ecu can't see a fuel temperature

quite a common hack i see for people to gain some extra performance or mpg but tbh its a bodge, go down scrap yard and remove the t-piece sensor and refit
