2011 Caddy 1.6tdi died

Post by lukas572 »

Hi all,
I have a 2011 1.6tdi caddy maxi which died on the m25 on monday.
I was draiving at 70mph had been going for an hour and half ish, then revs dropped suddenly so i pulled over it then just slowed and stalled. Will now start but only for a couple of seconds before stalling. Will not even idle without stalling, throttle appears to do nothing.

These two fault codes where showing - P0299 turbo underboost and 04985 - unknown

My reader cleared them and they havent come back, the rac scanner couldnt find anything, it showed good fuel pressure. All 4 injectors have been replaced.

Rac guy seemed to suspect the turbo has gone, but the engine will not run without stalling.

Any ideas are things to check would be greatly appreciated!

Check the Egr has not stuck open. Take the pipe off the manifold and see if it starts.
