2008 V50 D5 swirl flap actuator
Hello,
I have a v50 with the d5 engine. A while back I had it at w garage getting a new key and while sorting it they said there were fault codes for the swirl flaps. At this point I had no warnings or loss of performance. A month or so ago I got the engine management light on and the car was real slow. The slowness comes and goes but the EML remained. I bought a VIDA/DICE set up and cleared the errors but they came back again. The codes did indeed point to the swirl flap actuator so I bought a second hand unit and fitted it and erased the codes again but the light had come back on after a couple of times starting the car. When disconnected, the linkage all seems to move freely as far as I can tell. Will I need to program the new unit in? Or am I going to be replacing the swirl flaps themselves? Cheers

Had another crack at it this evening.
Managed to get a bit further with VIDA and ran the swivel channel adaption procedure to try calibrate the new actuator. Eml went out and I took it for a spin. It went three times of switching off and restarting before the light came back on. The codes that came back were: ECM-1000 Atmospheric pressure sensor - Faulty signal ECM-1600 Boost pressure sensor - Signal outside its permitted range Occasionally it comes up with another code that I can’t remember exactly saying something along the lines of that the swirl flap actuator is jammed. I’m guessing that either the second hand actuator I bought is faulty or I’ll have to get the inlet off and replace the swirl flaps.... Any other ideas on this would be great!

Well as expected, EML came back on today on the 3rd time the car was started.
Think I’m going to run the swirl channel adaptation procedure again, clear the codes then detach the swirl flap linkage. I’m hoping that if the actuator is functioning normally it should leave the light off and that would be the clear indication that the swirl flaps need replaced.

Hi,
I have the same engine at yours in my C30 and problem with swirl flaps error message. ECM-1890 Swirl actuator control - Jammed that is the exact fault code in Vida. Whenever I remove the code, it comes back after a while. The swirl arm moves freely and is not disconnected. I also thought about getting another actuator, however this code has never given me an EML light on dash. Some time ago I had a problem with pressure sensor on the intercooler (was damaged) and that gave a message on dash together with a limp mode. Hope that helps a bit Thanks |
