Forté's Technical Helpline receives over 300 calls per month. This blog shares solutions for garage workshops on common driveability concerns that can be quickly and effectively treated. The vast majority of those identified are caused by fuel and oil borne contamination formed by natural degradation or via the combustion process. This is a fact of life for internal combustion engines where fossil fuels and oils are used.

Problem with a FORD FIESTA 1.4L TDCi 2012 41k
Engine management light on and fault code stored for turbocharger boost control performance. Suspect fault due to sticking variable vanes on turbo.
The fault was cured by adding Forté Diesel Specialist Injector Cleaner and Forté Diesel Turbo Cleaner into the fuel tank and the customer advised to run for a week using premium fuel.
After a week the customer reported there were no further faults and the car was running fine.
Thanks to Craig at Purling Transport Ltd in Ipswich, Suffolk.
