Been having issues myself recently, doing the same, also a 2008, 2.4, 140HP. Taking some advice from another post, I popped the line off the PRV, started it, and had a slow, constant flow of fuel, not belting out, but that should be tight at idle, only opens above 260 Bar from memory? First thought was to just swap that, cheap(ish) and easy. No change, still doing it, but the flow stopped. Previously had an EGR code after it stumbled badly once, cleared that and it never came back. So, I hooked up Forscan, ran real time diagnostics, and it never skipped a beat. EGR working nicely, idle pressures from 21-25 Bar after a rev, but settled at 22-23 in a few seconds. Idle RPM very stable 796-803. Nothing I did could make it stumble, let alone stall. Packed up the laptop and ELM, fired the van up again, and within 2 minutes, stumble, rev, stumble, stall.

Believe its set point is 1600 ! Much more then 270 anyway!

Check your fuel filter if full. Brim it up

And… if your prv had opened, your scv will be the most likely reason. Replacing prv alone, will likely lead to a repeat. Get a new genuine scv on and do the learns. Hunting and stalling very likely down to that. Cheers

If your in Oz ? Call round to Lord knobrots (on here) with some tea and cake he will sort it out!!

Thanks Dan. SCV, that's the expensive little mongrel on the back of the pump, where you have to pull half the hang ons off the engine, and then still be a lanky contortionist, is that right? Sounds like a fun adventure for a chunky old bloke :roll:
Will get one on its way and change that next. Did the fuel filter the same time as the PRV as convenience since the system was opened, had to pull the rail off and hold in the vice. No way I could loosen the PRV in place.
It's just annoying that it ran as sweet as ever with Forscan running, not telling me anything.
His Lordship is half way across the country and up north a fair distance, so probably won't be doing that one for a while :lol:

Thanks. Will update once that comes :D

Some run the learns first, but in my experience, particularly if the PRV has opened get the valve changed (scv) and learns done and it should be ok. You have addressed the PRV so that should be ok once sorted. You do run the risk of your new PRV opening if you drive it meanwhile…
