Hey all, I would appreciate some assistance if possible.
I bought my nav from maska in 2012. It worked fine until started smoking a lot. Thanks to this and other websites, I put in the egr blanking plate. This was in 2015, the vehicle was working perfectly since.
On Saturday after driving about for an hour or so, my vehicle just lost all power. I reset the ecu as this used to help when I was getting the egr problems. It did not help this time. The vehicle was idling fine, however, whenever I tried accelerating there was no power and lots of white smoke. After calling my mechanic, he recommended that I drain the fuel filter, this also did not help.
I drove the vehicle at about 35km/hr to my mechanic, barely making it over Chaguanas flyover. Under the assumption of poor fuel, he emptied and cleaned the tank, changed the filter and ran the liquimoly treatment through the system. He also checked the turbo, maf sensor etc for any problems.
Now, he took the vehicle for a run, between 1000-2500 rpm there was still little to no power until the turbo kicked in. Also, there was lots of black smoke ( no longer white). A diagnostic was run on the vehicle with no error code. The diagnostic guy raised and lowered the fuel pressure (I think) and they noticed a knocking along with the other problems mentioned. It was then suggested that I get the injectors serviced. I collected the injectors from the guys who serviced them (close to morvant junction), only to be told that the injectors are good. I am therefore assuming that when my mechanic puts them back in this evening that the problems will still persist.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
