Why? Ford Transit 2.2 6 Weeks At Garage But Still P0299 Underboost & P2463 DPF Blocked Diagnostic

Transit custom 2.2 with turbo underboost & DPF Issues

[@larrysimon1]

Taxi company mechanics are the same up here, swapping bits from one car to another and causing more problems than they fix. Good job you sorted it thou for them.

[@geoffbox4455]

I wish you were in Scotland! My Fiat Ducato has been with the official Fiat dealer for 4 weeks now and they still don't seem to know what is wrong. They are changing the EGR valve but can't say if it is going to work. You are amazing

[@steveguest8028]

Good video Jimmy, we see this a lot on the 2.2 transit with these aftermarket turbo actuators, we always fit new genuine turbo’s to them, its expensive but always fixes the issue

[@Elm521]

Top job Jimmy, sorted without the need for the old parts cannon. Cheers for the upload.

[@Stoney3K]

The underboost could also be partially caused by the blocked DPF, as the turbo needs a pressure differential across the turbine to spool up. If the DPF is restricting the exhaust flow severely it is going to prevent the turbo from making boost, causing bad combustion issues and filling up the DPF even more.

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes

[@johnmcquay82]

@@ORileysAutos Pretty sure that's what is happening with my Citroen Dispatch. It's always felt a little gutless since I had it, then back in March it went into limp and subsequently failed it's MOT on an Engine Management light; they diagnosed it and replaced the throttle body. A grand later and problem (and the old fault code I was getting) did go away but it seems a little gutless still, it's throwing up errors again now, so I bought an OBD2 reader to read off the codes, and I'm pretty sure I'm looking at a blocked DPF. It's booked in to have it cleaned next week, and I'm hopeful that'll be the end of it. I need to get a tow bar fitted to it, but I'm not going to be towing anything with it being as gutless as it is right now.

@@johnmcquay82 Diesels need to be driven hard every now and then. I had an A4 2.0 TDI which lacked power but had no fault codes showing on the dash, I was due to start a job in Germany and had to go. I took the car with fingers crossed it would get me down to Wurburg, but after several hours at high speed (90mph) on the autobhan it pulled like a train. It just needed a good clear out.Poodling about is the worst thing for a diesel lump, it just get chocked up. As has this taxi in the video.Petrol engines are far better for taxi work.

What I love love love about that miracle fluid is that you don’t need to carry out forced regen which I hate doing as I feel it’s a lot of hard work for the engine and at the end of the day you never really know the engines health coolant pipes etc anything can go bang at any time so much better using that chemical amazing 😊

Reckon that new turbo actuator needed a relearn as it was working just nof the right amount? Loving your video bro. Ll

[@danielbuchanan9651]

The 80.1 was in red because for some reason the range was 0-1 instead of 0-100. Seen it a couple times with my Launch. Should probably send them a report.

[@isctony]

yup, well spotted, i was thinking the same thing. those % ranges should be 0-100 not 0-1. wasn't sure if you could adjust on the tool or whether it requires an update

[@amwbsg8659]

Great videos. Very helpful. Thanks. Have you had an issue with intercooler air temperature sensor on these vans? I have had a engine service light after driving for a hour or so, with no loss of power and doesn't go in to limp mode, which disappears when the ignition is turned off and no error codes. Saw online than this is similar to problems with the intercooler sensor. Took out the sensor to test it, got about 10 kOmhs. Apparently a new sensor reads about 18 kOhms. But noticed the sensor was covered in oil. Bought a new aftermarket sensor but it reads less kOhms than the one on the van.

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes they do fail sometimes. Also some vans share the loom with the maf sensor I think. Common to have issues with the plug on maf

[@martinsheanon3232]

bit of logic goes a long way .just makes you think what the original problem was or did it really have many multiple problems

[@ORileysAutos]

I'll never know

[@MrByootox]

Why does the ambient sensor affect DPF regeneration ?🤔🤔

[@RichardStefanits]

As far as I recall régen will not kick in below a quarter of a tank of fuel... Maybe I'm wrong...

[@potluckfishing]

Does the fluid juat break down the soot and expell it out the pipe? Can is break down Ash too?

[@leekirtley7234]

Take downpipe off at turbo and shove steam cleaner lance down, that'll clean dpf.👍 No more problems👌🤛🇬🇧

Is it easy to do this on a 15 plate 1.5tdci focus

[@roby11087]

Hey, I've a similar problem p0299, I've done the following, new turbo with actuator, gutted DPF, mapped out with EGR and Blanked off, new oil pump and sump, check boost pressure sensor for carbon deposit, changed air filter and MAF sensor, done a smoke test on the intake system and intercooler system and there's no leaks. When I drive its boosting in 1st but not great. Second it hits 2 gear at about 60 70km, ESP light comes up along with service message in the cluster. No EML at all, only fault that ever comes back is the underboost. I'm now being told to get the injectors checked but I'm not confident that will sort the underboost issue. Any advice mate?

Default values set from the factory. Some manufactures have a back up strategy if the MAF fails.

Hi Jimmy, I have the same van - 2016 2.2 Sport. Van was driving perfectly, no warning lights on dash, then all of a sudden, while driving about 75mph on the motorway, the van started shuddering and losing power. I pulled over, had to get a recovery truck to take it to the garage. Oil leaking onto the ground. It wouldn’t start, but after it cooled down it would start, but didn’t sound healthy at all. Turns out, it split a piston. Have you any idea why this would have happened…? Van was serviced regularly, and there was 70k miles on the clock.

[@desertmandan123]

Had a similar fault on a VW Sharan, turns out it had had a broken cambelt. Mileage was 94,000 miles. Belt and bent valves were replaced, but engine did smoke a little. Head pulled off and hyd oil left on top of pistons over night. Next moring 1 piston had no oil on top....pulled piston and it fell into 2 halves....cleaned the piston and saw valve indentation mark on piston crown. New rings and a new piston and honed the bores on all cylinders and its still going strong.

[@dobrln]

I may have an idea, cheap materials used in the UK market to make you buy another one. I don't try to be rude but that's the poor reality. As a foreign I've noticed this from my first day. McDonald's lol . Everything is poor compared to other markets. Sorry....

Im having bad dreams with a 2.2 transit from 2014 too. NEVER EVER dropped a single fault code. Nothing! It regens every time the vehicle is on road, once in a running cycle. Pressure is good, vaporizer good, oil level prefectly halfway between the marks and reseted. Injectors tested, 1 replaced and teached. Dpf cleaned with pro machine after dismantling, then teacjed. Egr, intake valve and manifold also cleaned, actuators tested and teached. Starts on first crank, runs fine, pulls as it should. Just REGENERATES at EVERY f.kin run. Dont know what to do. Anybody pls HELP :D
