Hi chaps.
Ok, still having problems with my poxy td4, getting well ****ed off now.
Starts fine, set off to work and driving steadily seems ok, but as soon as I get to a steep hill and have to put my foot down a bit it starts to lose power and the yellow engine light comes on. After this it stays on, and on balanced throttle, just enough to keep rolling, it surges and then holds back alternately. I struggle to better 55/60 on flat. I limp to work, and then at home time it's ok again until the same happens again. This has only started after my small engine fire as my last post (see Bugger!!!!).
Replaced the manifold, repaired the wiring, changed the map sensor, done an EGR bypass, taken out and cleaned the high pressure fuel rail sensor, but still the same. I now think I have two more choices. Number one, change the fuel rail pressure sensor, (about £120.00), or change the MAF sensor, (about £71.00 from Rover Ron). Now I'm not made of money as most of us aren't nowadays, so, has anyone got a used but functional fuel rail sensor I could borrow to try, As I don't want to shell out £120.00 if it's not at fault. Obviously I'll Pay postage both ways.
Any other ideas Anyone????
