V50 2.0d running rough when cruising
Hi all,
I Bought a V50 the other day, really happy with it and if needs be I can take it back to the independent dealer I got it from but it's a 3 hours one way drive so would rather sort it myself if I can. Car fires up first turn of the key and runs ok although slightly round but by no means bad, however when cruising at say 1500-1700rpm at 30/40/50/60 (speed makes no difference neither does gears) is feals like its misfiring every now and then. When accelerating either hard or easily it pulls no bother and pulls like a train. There's no clutch slip, no untoward noises I can hear and it does it when warm or cold. I've tried cleaning the throttle body which was absolutely caked in crud, I haven't tried it yet to see if it's cured as I have my 2 year old daughter sleeping, I'll try it first thing tomorrow morning. the idle is still slightly rough, anything else anyone can recommend I try tonight? Cheers Mike. |

Brilliant car and engine. Change the fuel filter, throw away the fuel (and water) in the filter housing. Refill with fresh diesel from a can.
If that does not fix it, run some injector cleaner through (or a tank or two of heating oil if you can get it - it's flipping brilliant for cleaning injectors). If that does not fix it, come back :-)

Hi Mdon,
I have the same issue with my V50 2.0d. Did you manage to get yours sorted. I have replaced the fuel filter on mine so far, but this didn’t help. Someone else has suggested EGR valve. |
