  . In the meantime, he reset the ECU.  When I took it to the other Halfords, I was told that their diagnostics did not pick up any error (even after they drove it around for 10 miles) and that it might just have been a sensor error. They then told me that I should drive it around and take it back
• Citroen Xsara Picasso (2000 - 2010) - 04 1.6 Hdi Non-starter P0087, P1113, P1351 19 Nov 2012 (Forum)
  Please help me. I recently bought Picasso with 147,000 miles and it has a Bosch EDC16C3 ECU. While in Somerset the engine died, and the MIL was on. A local garage diagnosed dirty diesel, cleaned the tank, replaced the filter and switched off the MIL. I filled the tank at Morrison?s in Glastonbury

  it for a drive and flatly denied it to be a DMF issue, even though the horrible spanners under the bonnet issue arose on two occasions. He had a quiet word with his service manager who advised to have an update to the ECU which should solve the problem and that it should be booked into Benfield Ford down

• Take me back 23 Jun 2021 (Forum)
  I hate all the unnecessary electronic gubbins that are fitted to even the smallest of cars these days. Bluetooth this, hands free that, twenty ECU’s, numb electric steering and hugely complex automated manual gearbox all with an almost certain gargantuan bill for repair at the other end. My wife’s
• Mazda 3 - mazda 3 1.6 diesel oil temp minus 40? 1 Nov 2019 (Forum)
  not engage because the pressure was too high. I have managed to do a manual re-gen and clear the DPF out, the problem i am having is that the oil temp is saying minus 40. i think that because the ECU is getting the reading of minus 40 degrees the DPF will not re-generate its self. my first thought

  and asked them to do a test on the battery but was told that I need to book in next month as they are too busy. I mentioned to the service team with the above information and told me not to measure the battery voltage with a multimeter as this could damage the ECU and charging system. Is this possible
• Jaguar X-Type Estate (2004 - 2007) - 04 2.0D Engine cuts out..... 20 Oct 2017 (Forum)
  on to the main injection pump and it still would not start. That makes me suspect that the main fuel pump could be faulty, or some other sensor which leads to the ECU switching the pump off. Then it started again. I checked the connections on the main fuel pump and on the fuel pressure sensor. Needless to say

  problems, it runs perfect. The engine sounds good. The car is used quite a lot, probably 5-10 trips a day. So ~90% of the time it always runs fine. I've read the ECU, nothing major jumped out aside from a P0106 fault (which may or may not be related). I've double checked that all air pipes

  the speed. If I press the clutch in at any time or put it in neural the revs fall and it idles normally. There is no engine light on and no other faults whatsoever. I?m thinking the ecu has a problem with the new coil or was affected by the old one, or an air leak somewhere. Either way I want

  included the ECU and dodgey electrical connectors or wiring. Apparently the alternator is regulated via some part of the engine control system, so this may not be the root cause. I am reluctant to have to pay £280 speculatively for a replacement alternator with no guarantee this is the real problem only

  sensor, coolant temp sensor and cleaned the electronic throttle body twice and even ran some Cataclean through the fuel but have not managed to resolve the problem.

  on only at 70mph (when the DPF would usually regen?), would you guys think that the ECU hasn't been remapped properly when the work was done?   Seems to me that the EML is being pinged because it's forcing the DPF regen, when there isn''t a DPF there?   I'm not overly
