Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 13-08-2012

Basically was giving the car a good boot and boom power cut out stop light, EML, and oil light turned it off and on again and it's just EML but it stinks of diesel and oil out the exhaust of I boot it it happens again does anyone know what can cause this or should I just get it on the diagnostic ?? Any help would be much appreciated :-)

Diagnostics would help, but i'd immediately be looking at your lift pump since that was being a problem before. Without running live diagnostics i'd just expect it to bring up the usual P0230 fault code. Where are you based?

Plymouth area it's very irritating as the car was driving amazingly then felt like I'd hit something and no power :-(


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - cully - 14-08-2012

oil light? is there any oil in the engine ?


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

Yeah oil is fine :-( when the car initially jolts like I've hit something the stop light comes on the battery light and the oil and EML if I turn the car off if it hasn't already stalled and turn it back on its just the EML that stays on untill I put my foot down hard then boom it happens again not quite sure what's causing it but it stinks out the back since it happend

Ok just started it runs very very lumpy and plooms of white smoke on start up and drives very very rough :-( turbo ?? Some sort of oil seal ?? This is bumming me out big time :-(


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - spike2002 - 14-08-2012

I had the oil light and stop light come on and the car cut out a few times on my 6 but that was because the hg had gone and it was dumping all the oil into the rad Confused

check your alternator charging rate, something like this happened on my 206 turned out that the tensioner had seized in the block so after a short amount of time the belt would stretch and it would slip, due to your system being electrical its a pita!


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Poodle - 14-08-2012

Ah if youve got loads of white smoke thats probably your turbo seals. :/

You're gunna want to punch me in the man bits for this but I looked at the receipt from fuel station and I stuck 45 quids worth of petrol on it lol I've been driving my st for the last week so got into habbit :-( got it home drove abit better so now I'm gunna siphon it and hope it hasn't knackered the engine :-(


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - cully - 14-08-2012

oww check out my post in the guide section for easy syphoning Wink
once youve got it all out you might want to change the fuel filter too

Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

Ok so siphoned the fuel noticed a lot of little shreds of metal at ye bottom of the tank so cleaned as much out as poss refilled with diesel new filter still ran badly then an almighty clunk and boom high pressure fuel pump exploded all injectors trashed :-( the car is a wreck took it all off and there are little shards of metal everywhere :-( dunno where the fook they came from Sad but the car is now on the drive awaiting new pumps injectors and fuel tank :-( today is a sad day :-(


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Poodle - 14-08-2012

Holy fook, sounds like you did that properly. I wonder what exactly's happened there...


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

It's rattled ever sinse I bought it of my
Mate and I assume it was injectors per ignition or turbo bearings as it seems it was the pump chewing up bits if metal :-( I've done the fuel tank and the pump
In the back ordered a HP fuel pump 48 quid XD and seen some second hand injectors for 60 for all 4 so may indulge and see if he will start and run ok although I got a feeling itl still decide to cut out :-( with petrol still in the system


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Poodle - 14-08-2012

All these engines rattle with anything other than sub-10k injectors, shouldn't think that'd be related. Why don't you flush the system before running it again...?


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

How do I do that ??


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Poodle - 14-08-2012

Erm, pump clean diesel through it... Same as you'd flush anything else - pump through something that's meant to be in there, rather than what shouldn't, eg petrol lol.


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

That's ok I've drained the tank as best I can so I'll get On that !!


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - cully - 14-08-2012

diesel hp pump probably eat itself as it needs the diesel to lubricate itself,
this was one of the problems that arised when people started to run homebrew bio and or veg through the HDI .
HP pumps used to seize and throw the cambelts bashing the valves into the head

lets hope you can save it
but you maybe looking for another engine


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 14-08-2012

Yeah the HP pump was full of what I can only describe as metal sand :-( ill see if itl start tomoz when I get back from work but tbh it may just be cheaper instead of replacing bits to get a new engine !!


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Poodle - 15-08-2012

Almost certainly bud, it's gone in a big way by the sounds of it. Will keep my fingers crossed for you though.


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - gareth7 - 15-08-2012

I'd do as other's have already suggested, find a lower mileage engine to put in.......stick a new cam belt and water pump on before you fit it to make life easier.........maybe even a new clutch if you can afford it too?


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 15-08-2012

Yeah Ill start saving the pennies nxt payday :-) new engine I think


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Matt - 15-08-2012

What a shitter, didn't realise putting petrol in these things could destroy them so badly


RE: Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - andywhy - 15-08-2012

It probably wouldn't have if he'd not driven it so much/so hard after not realising. If you didn't run it long then it might have been a different scenario.


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 15-08-2012

It went boom literally 1 minute atfter filling it up pulled out of station onto straight road put my foot down and bang :-( sad face time


Oil and engine management light come on when I put my foot down ?? - Jukie88 - 22-08-2012

Fuel tank empty new HP fuel pump soon to be new injectors then refill and see how he runs :-)
