Just pulled apart my 1.6 TD because of 1 cylinder not firing when cold.. didnt find much wrong in the HG department except leakage between oil jacket and cylinder on the cylinder I suspected,, But I started today to remove the intake manifold and low and behold cylinders #1 & #4 both had blow the intake gasket out. It alsmost looks like the gasket itself cracked and seperated about 1/8". I'm sure it was leaking boost. dont think it would do much else as its a diesel though..
Anyone else ever come accross this prob?
Gotta say I'm not a big fan of these Victor Reinz gaskets... I'll take felpro anyday.
