Had the same fault on our FL2. Engine light on. I removed and cleaned the throttle, but on moving the butterfly the motion was smooth with even restriction, and no notchy feel, so I guess our gears are not gone. I did not want to destroy the valve to check the gears, so refitted and cleared the ECU faults. For a few runs there was some odd sounding opening and closing noises form the valve on shut-down that seemed to go on for a while, but now all seems well and no more engine lights. If I interrogate the ECU however, I get some greyed out codes for this and other faults. Anyone shed some light, the report reads

I have engine light sometimes coming on with "ENGINE SYSTEM FAULT" message. Sometimes light comes on when engine starts, sometimes driving. Sometimes I feel lack of power, even when pedal pressed fully down.

I am wondering if this could be causing my intimitant problem starting? After I stop the engine it does seam to be making noises for longer.

Mine has just gone too, 60k miles. Thanks for the photos and chat on how to sort it. 2010 Td4e with too much warranty work to detail

Hi Rami, I would suggest starting a new thread and posting a video with sound, this will help with diagnosis. |

Just had mine changed due to stripped gears. Switched the car off Friday , no noises or prior worries but going back to the car it wouldn't start. Dealer took it out after recovery and it was shut solid and preventing the car from starting due to no air into the system. The new one seems to have also solved a flat spot I had on accelerating.

Exact same thing happened for first time last night. I got that squawking/screeching sound where your finger is pointing. When you press on that silver casing part it affects the sound it makes so it's definitely that part that is causing the noise. The question I have, is, is that the EGR or ELECTRONIC THROTTLE or are they all one unit? I don't want to replace an entire EGR if it's just the ELECTRONIC THROTTLE attached to it? Thanks for any help Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated |

Throttle body is different to EGR valve. Not sure what is being pointed to, sorry. |
