Have the flashing glow plug light and following your guide get a fault code of r 0206. Any idea what that is and if its okay to drive until I can get it fixed. Car done 46,000 miles.

That code does not relate to that engine; maybe get a scan done by a local garage or specialist.

Only guesswork; but it's often the ECU has lost an injector calibration code.

Fault fixed it was an injector setting being lost. This appears to be a common fault although why it occurrs appears not to be known. Unless you know better ?

My Mondeo has just started the same problems as this and also comes up with the same code - so hopefully this same cure will fix it!!!
So my questions are can any garage fix this or does it have to be a ford one?
also how much would i expect to pay for the repair (pennies are getting short in this finacial climate).

Many thanks for any help / advice offered.

I had the same problem on a regular basis and had to have injectors swapped about to see if it was a mapping fault or a worn injector -one was a worn injector - but still had same problem on others -I used dales diesel engineers in Burslem Staffs - I was shown a recall on the injectors in the vehicle which said vehicles need to be remapped - But Ford wont accept this - I had mine performance remapped to around 160 bhp and the glow plug has been on twice in six months but when you turn ignition off and on again it seems to reboot and is fine again -Im about to get all my injectors recoded at the same time and will know it should be spot on -ps if you can afford the £300 for a remap its def worth it cause its a completly different animal after
