Recommended Posts

so decided to buy a tin top and retire my van brought a vauxhall insignia 2ltr cdti got it cheap cos it has got a fault car runs perfect when its cold when it reaches full temp in third gear at three thousand revs it goes into limp mode and displays service engine soon if i stop switch engine off it resets and drives perfect runs fine as long as i dont go to 3000rpm in third gear or above its not to much of an issue cos its a quick car good torque at lower revs but i would like to get it sorted

Sounds like blocked dpf or wastegate solinoid pipes but looking at egr pipe etc

Force regen or dpf removal and remap chris pm me if want details

there is a common fault with this car/engine which is a split intake boost pipe/hose, if you open the bonnet and look down to the right ,just in front the battery you will see a large black boost pipe, feel the back of the pipe for any splits, you may find its covered in oil so be prepared to get dirty.
