what could be wrong with my hdi? - Josh1994 - 30-09-2014

Hi all,

So i just started the hdi up after a month and a half, good thing is that she started up. Bad thing is i think something is going to go wrong with the car. When i started her up the revs went to 500 revs under 10, and now keeps revving up and down slowly, never use to happen before.. could this mean it could be the EGR Vaulve? Same thing happens to my dads 2008 ford transit..

Any advice?

Josh..

I wouldn't imagine anything to do with egr. Have you given it a drive or a run and see if it carries on the same after.

After 6 weeks without running it's not surprising!! Confused

If the picture is the idle that's fine, about 800rpm. Revving slowly I'm not so sure, but will probably be alright after a drive.

Can't take it for a drive as no insurance tax and I think no M.O.T, I thought it was the EGR valve as on my dad's transit it's worst than mine and people said it's that, got worried there as nothing has happened to it before, I will disconnect the battery until I can insure it to take it for a drive.. Cheers guys..

Once you have got it insured let it warm up then take it for a good blast that usually solves things.

Yeah, I will take it down the motorway for some miles, and then I will see from there.. Thanks..

The problem with the transit is one unique to transits/ford for the most part.

Its happened to loads of ppl, they say clean the egr as they did and it should be fine..
