Fault symptom


• Check Engine on continuously or intermittently, car goes into limp-home mode with max. 60% of full power available. A screeching sound can occasionally be heard from the fuel pump when the engine is warming up.


Conditions

The following conditions apply for the DTC in question:


• DTC goes on if

a: Fuel supply restricted. This can be due to a pinched or folded suction line, blocked fuel filter or by foreign objects in the suction line.

b: Fuel return restricted. This can be established by measuring the pressure level at the connections to the injection pump. The pressure on the suction line must not be below -0.2 bar under any circumstances. The pressure in the return line must not exceed 1.0 bar under any circumstances.

c: Injection pump binding. The pump must be changed.
