2.2HDI Vibration at Idle, Chugging from Exhaust!
Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2014 11:29 pm
So all of the sudden after a 200 mile motorway journey the car is vibrating at idle (rev needle twitches a bit but it always has)
The exhaust sounds alot louder (Throatier and deeper) , but there are no holes etc in it.
There is a vibration at idle, it is not severe, but noticable through the steering wheel, centre console, seat and drivers door when open.
There also seems to be slightly less power and the car smooths out as soon as it's on boost, but alot noiser, like I've put a cherry bomb on the car.
Oil is full.
Only thing that's change is I put a new electrovalve on the turbo, or more importantly, swapped it with the working EGR one and blocked that up.
Was fine for 350 miles now this.
Also big puff of black and blue smoke on start up and doesn't start as smooth as it did. But always first time.
Thought it could be injectors, ran a bottle of Forte through with V-Power (Made no difference)
Suggestions? (P.S No Engine Light, No new codes with PP2000)
