WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS OF P0234 IN A CAR?


Known as the engine over-boost condition, P0234 is caused when the engine control module finds out that the signals from the intake boost pressure sensor are above the prescribed limits by 4 psi for more than 5 seconds. 




Mostly occurring in VW Golf, P0234 in VW Golf 2.0 TDI can be treated from experienced and trained mechanics only. As there are several components in a car, there is always a possibility that some of these components can malfunction. To ensure that your car has P0234 and not any other problem, look out for these indications mentioned below: 

Illuminated check engine light

If your car has P0234, then your check engine light would get lightened up and the code ‘P0234’ would be set in the memory of the ECM. 

Failing gaskets 

When a car suffers from P0234 or the engine over-boost condition, there are high chances of failure of gaskets. If such incidences occur regularly, it might be a case of P0234 and the best course of action would be to get it checked-out from experienced mechanics. 
Malfunctioning of engine 


 All these indications are warning signs that it is high time to get your car serviced. As the issue is of priority status, it is recommended to always get consultations from seasoned mechanics, who know their way around engines.

STAGES OF ENGINE VALVE CLEANING SYSTEM

Image
The engine valve cleaning machines are usually equipped with 4-stage aqueous cleaning system and mostly use detergent chemicals as aqueous solvents. So, read on as we unravel the engine valve cleaning machine system step-by-step. Pre-Cleaning Tank The engine components at this stage are first dipped in hot solvents with temperatures close to 70 Celsius. This stage aids the removal of most of the oil along with ensuring a coarse clean for all the components. Subsequently, the engine components are administered to a flood wash by returning the detergent chemicals through an educator. Though, sometimes the components are also dunked to the brim to ensure better impingement and oil dissolution. Soak Cleaning The soak cleaning process is largely similar to the pre-cleaning tank process. With the exception, that in this stage solvents are replaced by aqueous detergent chemicals that ensure an even finer cleaning of the components. Additionally, the solvents used...

WHY IS ENGINE VALVE CLEANING IMPORTANT?

Image
Automotive engine valve cleaning is necessary if you want your vehicle to stand the test of time. An engine is like the heart of a vehicle, and just like a heart needs oxygen to survive, the engine also needs air to burn fuel, the elixir which makes it run.                                                          It is the engine valves which allow the intake and out-take of air which further helps the engine to combust fuel. If anything were to happen to these valves, it would also have an indirect effect on the performance as well as on efficiency. Therefore, engine valve cleaning is extremely important to ensure the long-term wellbeing of a vehicle.  Here are a few of the many reasons to show you the ...
