Hi Everyone - am new to the forum - nice to meet you. I am based in Perth Australia, if anyone has any local recommendations re: mechanics please chime in! I have a 2005 CRD KJ, brought new, 180K on the clock. I have recently had all 4 injectors replaced but have been experiencing an intermittent starting issue - the engine turns over but doesn't take, it's almost as if there is no fuel (when there clearly is). Weirdly if I leave the car for a few hours, it will start again. I usually see the issue whilst on a multi-stop trip - a cold start in the morning is typically fine. I have had new glow plugs put in a few weeks ago along with the new bosch injectors. If I prime the fuel system manually, it's always low pressure, but I am unclear if this is normal and the priming only is relevant when the car is running? I have read that an inline fuel pump can help with this issue or it may be a crack shaft sensor issue - any advice I can give me local mechanic about what to look for / do - would be appreciated! Thanks in advance. Drew |

Another plus for the "in tank", the quick connect fuel line are design to work on positive pressure ! |

Thank you all. Re: codes - the engine warning light is also on and I got P0700 / (c6) P-2706 (MS Solenoid Circuit) / Transmission Control Module Note: Occasionally the OD kicks out when traveling on long open roads at > 100kph and the RPM goes up 700 or so. if I stop the car, turn it off and re-start, the OD is back working again, until it kicks out. So I am curious if this is the Transmission Control Module or something more sinister? On the in-tank fuel pump, something a local mechanic should feel confident doing as an after-market modification? What do you think is a reasonable hour quote for the labor by a mechanic shop on the crankshaft sensor and separately the in-tank fuel pump retrofit? Thank you again - your help is really appreciated. |
