1.9 dw8 lack of power

[carwood]

Hi there new to the forum first post hope someone can help. I have a 2006 1.9d berlingo revs ok when stationary go to drive its slow but picks up at 2750 rpm changed the EGR valve still no good the clutch isn't good thaught some Debre had damaged the fly wheel sensor fitted new one still no good any ideas no light coming on no fault codes showing. also when van gets up to temperature after going down gears when go to take off you get a diesel knock switch van off and on and knock dissapears

Sounds to me as if the engine injection timing is out .

Camshaft belt slack or pulley loose, camshaft sensor faulty (if fitted).

Remove the cam cover and check the belt

[carwood]

do you need pins on dw8 to check timing

[brodfather11]

yes you need pins to set and check camshaft timing , or drill bits the right size .

I think its either 8mm or/and 6mm dia.

Has there been any work done to it before the problems started ?

[carwood]

no. Theres a solinoid with two breather pipes conecting to the egr valve will change that after i check timing

[carwood]

Hi there sorry it took so long timing ok the solinoid is working fine took the cat off van is running fine

Hi Carwood, I see your van is running fine now?

To improve its performance do the following...........

1. Change the fuel filter - very easy to do

2. Remove the plastic inlet manifold (4 bolts) and clean it out thoroughly as they accumulate oil due to the breather pipe connected between it and the rocker cover.

If you think its running well now try these tips- You might be surprised.

Back again van running like s**t it seems to be over fueling lots if suit out the back of the exhaust when you go down the gears and go to take off again diesel knock switch off and on van goes ok anyone any ideas what it could be

[brodfather11]

The advance solenoid on the fuel pump sticking ? ( this depends what engine you have) or wires to it having a bad connection

Hi did you think of checking the 'butterfly' before the inlet manifold? There are 2 vacuum pipes connected to it, seen them giving bother before.
