problem with Vauxhall Vectra 2.2diesel Elite
#30
I asked him twice for the code and he said he would tell me, but ended up deleting it on purpose because he was arrogant..

Having just spent an evening diagnosing a Zafira dti for hot starting faults for a colleague, they are plagued by three main problems as far as I could see.

1) injector leak off pipes - this is the cluster of small rubber pipes that come away from the head, above the EGR valve. They are known to perish, and are overbraided iirc so not that obvious. new ones cost pennies.
2) EGR valve - standard diesel EGR issues, like to clog to buggery
3) Injector washers - not the copper ones at the bottom but the neoprene (?) ones at the top - an injection arrangement I hadn't come across before but prone to issues.

Get the code....

He said it was something to do with a pipe which controls the turbo from the EGR valve.

The small pipe sounds like a vacuum pipe, a broken or missing one will cause problems! If its the EGR one though, it just means the EGR wont open if its removed... Just hope its not the brake servo one... Confused
