The mk3 tdci is a mature product, I think all known problems have been discovered by now. If you don't get any ideas from this forum, try asking on talkford.com as it has an active mk3 section. I've just replaced the sensor today with a delphi grey one. ยฃ22 so worth a try.
The glow plugs are only used to start the engine, and should have no effect once the engine is warmed up. The variable vanes on the turbo can coke up, which can cause exessive boost pressure as the VNT (variable nozzle turbo) controls the boost via the electronic or pnumatic actuator,the exessive boost pressure is liable to occur at high revs/ load and can trigger limp home mode. "thrashing I ended up with a mk3 Mondeo 2.0 TDCi, 115PS, 2006-plate hatchback in green. Great cosmetic condition, 136,000 miles on the clock, with no service history apart from last MOT (March 15), which it passed with a couple of advisories, one of which is the noise I'm asking about here.
Hi, I have a 2007 mondeo 2.0 tdci which has very recently developed a very slight misfire. Its hardly noticeable but seems to be getting gradually worse particularly when sitting at around 2000 revs. Also, when you accelerate quite a bit of smoke comes out the exhaust. Its not white smoke but more like dark greyish smoke.
