Van Cut Out. Glow Plug Light Flashing

[GKandR4CH]

Got the van booked in for a timing belt, ancillary belt and glow plug change on Tuesday.
Lets hope it's fixed on Monday as I should notice a change in the performance.

Hi just found this thread after my Connect started doing exactly the same thing on Friday evening and 3 times this morning Just wondered if belt and glow plug change sorted it out

In the end GK had 4 replacement injectors fitted

Yes I had 4 injectors done as they were returning too much diesel, which meant low pressure. I broke down 47 times last week coming back from Vale's work unit.
And 24 times up the M2 motorway, it's all up hill.
Get yourself a leak test done first. If you cannot afford to, get yourself 4 lengths of pipe and 4 bottles. Disconnect the return lines on the injectors and connect the pipes.
You should run a 3 minutes test, which will produce 30ml of diesel in each bottle. Any more diesel than that and they are buggered.
I got my 4 injectors from Diesel Bob at £90.00 + vat each. They offer a very good service.
She runs like the French TGV now.

I'll phone Colchester Fuel Injection tomorrow and get her booked in. It happened while I was flooring it in 4th this evening while joining A13 and after that power felt a bit down on way home. Just what you need this close to xmas

If your glow plug light came on then should register an error code as they double up for the EMS warning light.

Hi. I know it’s a long time ago. But did you find the problem. I have a mk6 & it has just done exactly as yours did right down to the 70mph up a hill. Didn’t want to start straight away but did after a minute so left it around 15 minutes it it started & ran fine. Trouble is it was 4 hours into a 4 1/2 hour journey to Cornwall so don’t know if it will cause further problems.

Need to post this in the Transit section, rather than the Connect section.
