MK7 Transit 2012 260 swb 100 2198cc

Hi All,
the esp and powertrain warning lights came on last week resulting in a loss in power.
Portable diagnostic reader pointed to glow plugs, just had these replaced but the lights have come on again after about ten miles.....

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Steve.

Many thanks ake.

Any ideas in what the problem might be or could it be multiple faults?

Could be any of about 100 faults

Any joy with this Steve?
I have the same issue with my Mk7 2013 XLWB.
I have had the intercooler pipe replaced as it had a split in it, Glow plugs and 5th glowplug replaced, EGR valve replaced. I have now been informed that the turbo needs to be replaced as the vanes are not actuating causing too much boost pressure. Fault code is P2599. Not sure if this is the case as the van drives great but at about 80 miles the fault lights come on and the van goes in to limp mode if I switch engine off then on again the fault lights clear and the van drives like new again.

Many thanks for all the help.
After having the glow plugs replaced things continued to get worse, the warning lights were coming on after half a mile...!!
The last diagnostic test pointed to the turbo underperforming, so the mechanic took a look underneath and found a 2" split in the turbo pipe......
Replaced that next day and I cannot believe the difference.
Peterjump, you were right..!!

Many thanks.
