Loss of power and engine going into limp mode, engine management light coming on and glow plug light
flashing. Fault code stored P123A turbo actuator fault.
After further investigation the turbo actuator was
disconnected revealing that the turbo vanes were sticking due to carbon build-up.
The fault was cured by
applying Forté Diesel Intake Cleaner into the intake system as per instructions, adding Forté Diesel Specialist InjectorCleaner and Forté Diesel Turbo Cleaner into the fuel tank and carrying out an extended road test.
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.
