The Redex and premium diesel didn’t work. In fact it’s getting worse. I’m going to take the EGR off and give it a clean. Can I take the injectors out and clean them. If so what with.

Default C30 2.0D - Abrupt engine shake turning off

Hi Folks,

New to forum - so hope this is posted in right section etc.

This thread seemed similar to the issues I have had with my C30. It’s a 2.0 diesel with Powershift box, had it a few years now - on 90000 miles.

Think this is the Peugeot engine. Without DPF additive tank etc.

Had some issues with the DPF sensor - which was replaced last year, and DPF cleaned by local garage. However; I have recently experienced issues with the engine running poorly under acceleration... almost like it is “dithering” between 30-50 mph. But also more noticeably on turning off the engine it “shakes” abruptly after turning off ignition. Not smoothly turning off - the engine rattles/shakes.

It starts fine, and idles fine - just shudders on turn off.

Recently had it serviced by a “specialist”, who ran some diagnostics - nothing arose apart from a historic EGR message. So had new fuel filter and Powershift transmission service etc.

The throttle body was cleaned/piping into it as well on the service, but still an issue after with the “shuddering” and “dithering” acceleration.

Also recently noticed a slightly “gassy” smell in the car occasionally.

Anyone got an idea on this?

Forget Redex get a can of RG244 and add via a Jerry can so it all goes in. Within 90 miles the injectors will be cleaned up good and proper.
If that does not do the trick then you may have to get a leak off test done on them.

Will give it a go, see what happens.
I did have the EGR valve off and cleaned it, but since then i have noticed a bit of lack of power now. Any ideas

Looks like it injector test time, nothing seems to have cured it
