Jumbo Transit 08

Postby pointbluexxx » Tue Mar 20, 2018 3:19 am

Hi,

My transit keeps cutting out when stopping at traffic lights and junctions. It then takes 5-6 goes to start again. And a red light flashes between the fuel and temperature gauge.And sometimes when I get to about 60mph it seems to lose power, then all of a sudden it kicks in. I have changed the fuel filter.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks

Being an 08, I'll assume it's a 2.4 Mk7...She's possibly blown the PRV....you'll need to get the codes read otherwise it becomes an expensive guessing game.

Thanks. I thought it might be the PRV.
Borrowed by brothers code reader, but was mot sure what I was doing. Did find a code of P0404. Does that mean anything to you?

P0404 = EGR valve not happy.
