Hi all, just thought I'd try and get some assistance on this one, so any help is appreciated. So my d3 auto s has had some work carried out before Christmas annual service at the stealers, last year it had the big ins, cam belts etc, this year the service was more than expected, new erg valve just one thankfully, the car is of the age that a blanking kit could be adde and I just did have the time to get round to doing it so got caught on that one.
Any how I have has a spinal operation recently and knew that the wife could use thed3 if needed but she ended up haveing an unexpected operation herself so we are both incapacitated somewhat. Today we need to got to the second home the gp's on the way there an engine fault came up, when we returned I checked it out with my bas reader and the code read p132b I think, the card drove ok well our lass drove it I asked her to gun it and it pulled ok.
So just wanted to get your views in what this is looks like turbo or something along those lines, but I am surprised as the car as just come out, well 4 weeks prior from the stealers and they isn't pick it up, any how any advice would be very welcome indeed,
.
Thanks andym Andym Expert Beverage

Sorry forgot to mention, that the car has been stood for around 4 weeks!
That may have something to do with it as well.

Its been a while since I asked for some help on this which I did get many thanks. It's been a dry day for a change, the car has been stood for several weeks as well so I thought I'd tick this job of the list.
I asked a neighbour to lift the battery in and out for me and I used a paint pot handle as a wire to locate and hook the lever the actuator was very stiff indeed. I eventually managed to get some movement and joined several straws together and sprayed some WD40 near or around the actuator wasn't completely sure if I was getting the right spot. After 20 or so pushes and pulls it freed of very well indeed, I left the lever forward.
Assembled and though I'd clean the map señsor as well which was very dirty indeed, the same as the pics show in the ' how to clean your map sensor' thread.
Cleared the warnings and test drove very well.
Pleased so I just wanted to take the time and say another big thanks.....kr andym Andym Expert Beverage
