Please help before I burn it!


Recommended Posts

I have a 07 Vrs Pd170 diesel.

I've now been without it for 13 months.

It started out with a flat spot on acceleration, this turned out to be a mismatch between the original ECU and the new injectors that were fitted on 2011.

since this has been sorted the car has been smoking ridiculously when it warms up only! And only when it's sitting idle.

It is also not idling smoothly.

I have replaced the injector seals to no avail.

Another mechanic has suggested he could slightly adjust the camshaft.

I had the DPF removed and mapped out in 2012 also.

PLEASE PLEASE help as I am at the end of my tether with this piece of ****!!!

TBH if you've got a Monday morning / Friday afternoon car sometimes you're best to cut your losses and move on.

Isn't smoke at idle a sign of bad injectors? Pretty sure I read that somewhere. Are you happy that the replacement injectors are fully functional? I know from experience that a new part doesn't guarantee a working part. Not much help I know. Hope you get it sorted, if you are anything like me you are likely stressed to busting. Hopefully someone can offer some advice.
