Volvo C30 - low power issue
I have recently bought an '09 Volvo C30 1.6 Diesel.
Driving around town it seems fine, however on the motorway, the car struggles to accelerate past 60mph+ which is a real issue. It can reach 80mph eventually, but will not exceed this speed. Plugged into the computer, fault codes showing as: DIESEL ENG(Fuel System/Combined System) 7 problems exist 1.ECM-445D EGR Control 2.ECM-2A40 Particulate Trap. 3.ECM-1507 Turbo Control. 4.ECM-6710 EGR Control 5.ECM-4438 EGR Control 6.ECM-4477 EGR Control 7.ECM-4490 EGR Valve These fault codes were cleared (EGR valve was replaced last year) and after driving the car the fault codes have not returned - however the car still doesn't pick up speed. After speaking to the dealer (car is under warranty) he has advised that this may be a DPF issue and a regen was advised as the next steps. My mechanic said this isn't likely as there is pressure and DPF was regenerated and flushed at the end of last year, however I will look to clean the DPF filter tomorrow and go from there. Any ideas? |

Weird one. What happens if you clear the codes, do they come straight back?
Is your DPF pressure differential sensor reading correct values? |
