I have a Fiat Panda with the same engine it was clogged almost solid with soot. Excessive EGR flow and gentle driving are the culprit. By the way. Cam chains last 100,000 miles and will be broken by 120,000. They almost never rattle. It’s a service item.
V4VAUXHALL hi Joe I think u maybe right the guy called last night to say he had difficulty restarting it but it eventually caught after 10 tries!!! May he should consider selling to webuyanycar! Cheers sandy
Thank you ,these are very helpful technical informations.but you should use an oscilloscope to check injectors signal,crank sensor signal befor you jump to ECU.good luck
hi nice video for me astra h z13dth for not starting the problem was a stuck open egr..is one more reason for car not start up..at the end i had to hammer the egr for car to start!!!
thankyou sir i have an astra 1.3 cdti fantastic engine bullet proof but having a problem with brakes hard pedal brakes not great changed the servo no change any ideas ??? thanks
Blocked EGR, DPF & dirty MAF on my 1.7 CdTi are comman after 50k, needs constant cleaning for a damn good run to clean the carbon. Also, not a good sign..”never cleaned the filter” i wonder what else has not been done. Bad EGR & DPF can contaminate oil, adding poor reliability. Also Diesels hate slow runs, they just carbon up, hence need regular servicing!!!!
Hi mate , I’ve got a 1.3 diesel corsa, turned van on one morning left it running few mins then just died and won’t turn back on besides ez start in air filter, got 1bar out of 250bar on fuel pump, you reckon it’s just high pressure fuel pump?
Mine is doing the exact same will start first thing then if I go 2 minutes down the road won't start again but after that it will be fine the rest of the day changed the diesel filter still doing it annoying the life out me
Hello my friend this car still does this on occasion, best to connect a cheap scan tool and see if u can still access live data when it's a no start cheers sandy
@@sandyande it's so annoying too cause starts for turn off the key in the morning if I turn it off 2 seconds later won't start again but if I start it first thing and run it for a good 8-10 miles journey it's fine
@@sandyande went into the garage was starting fine cause it had been ran so he said to leave it overnight with him and he will check it tomorrow but it never flags up a engine managment light so going to be hard to diagnose I think 😥
Got a 1.3cdti 2007 reg. Having issues with misfiring. Replaced the wiring looms to the injectors. The engine fan is constantly running even with a cold engine. Wondering if anyone could help me out? Cheers
Hi could you have a look at my video please corsa CDTI running problem iv changed throttle flap is working fine Ecu ,fuel pump injectors , rail sensor ,crank sensor ,rail sensor ,egr working fine fuel pressure is fine op com no fault codes starts runs the cuts out Restarts fine then same symptoms Any help would be highly appreciated
@@sandyande thanks you've confirmed what I suspected. I be an engine cranks but no start tried spraying easy start but it didn't start. Any suggestions? Checked fuses they're ok so drawing a blank npw
Some very good info in this video, cheers. I'm sure a lot of people will find it useful as this engine is used in a lot of Vauxhalls and Fiat's.
Thanks for the video, MAF sensor tip helped me get a non starter engine running
