Renault kangoo Dci fault

[SeanM86]

I know its not a sport but I've got a kangoo 1.5dci70 work horse and it's throwing up the stop and engine management light when the turbo comes on then goes of again once I take the foot of the throttle. Anyone any ideas what it might be. I've have it fully serviced filters and new oil plus egr valve clean and new fuel filter.

It might be running lean whilst on boost, try running some injector cleaner through it, as they might be struggling to squirt in enough fuel if they are all sludged up. The good thing about trying this is it'll only cost 4 or 5 quid for a bottle so if it doesn't work you are back to square one with very little outlay

Sounds like fuel system needs looking at, do leak off on the injectors and report back with how much they let out over 1 minute.

Quick update. Tried some wynnes injector cleaner and my vans definitely running a lot smoother than before. Light will only flash on if acceraltion hard to over take between 50-60mph now and doesn't really happen any more times. Will try a few more tankful's with the injector cleaner before trying anything else. Would a tear in my air intake pipes cause any issues? Was having a look yesterday and noticed a small 30mm tear underneath my air intake pipe. Have a new pipe ordered up and a k&n filter but just checking the hole wouldn't cause any issues.

Well a hole in any hose isnt good so yes, it is an issue which you have now solved at least.

A new pipe should be easy and cheap to find from any breakers, in the meantime you could duct-tape it and see if that helps. It might, then again it might not.
