hi a friend of mine is in dire straights ,his peugeot expert diesel is driving him mad ,when driving along it keeps dieing a death with the engine management light showing ,if he leaves it a good few mins it will start again and run until the same things happens again which is a bit risky when motorway driving ,hes had it on dianogstics and it reports no faults ,hes changed filters etc but still no joy ,any one have a clue what he can try next its costing him hundreds as it is a taxi and darnt take long journeys ,oh its on a 52 plate cheers

possible faulty stop/start solenoid? my gf's mum had the same problem on a saxo 1.5d
I unplugged it and hey presto! Myt be worth trying to unplug and plug it in again

Which diesel engine? An HDi? Where was this "no faults" diagnosis done? These do store codes if the light's been on.
|
yes its the hdi ,ill ask where he had it done ,thanks for the point that it stores the code as i know the engine management light was deffo on cheers
|
right code has been found and it refers to turbo generator ,
good old peugeot state its a relay but wouldnt say which one unless he booked it into there workshop
|

"Turbo generator?" That's MBE! What the heck are they waffling about! Don't suppose that they gave you the actual code number by any chance? The only relevant relay on an HDi is the combined fuelling relay module: [little brown 15-wire block mounted on the ECU plate] if that is what they are saying is intermittantly failing [and they certainly can] just change it - they're not that dear.
|
yes the code was 1107 replaced the brown relay and it made no difference

Sorry to be so long replying; but I can't find that code listed anywhere for the HDi. Anyone got a full definition for 1107??
|
the saga conts ,there now saying the turbulance generator solenoid is failing but havnt a clue where it is or wont tell my friend ,i think there taking him for a ride
|
same problem with my van, took to garage he said he got a un documented error, going to have a look at starter solenoide.

Did the garage tell you what the code number was? Can't recall any codes for starter solonoid? What year/engine etc. is your van and what's the precise fault?
