2.0 HDi aka Ford TDCi Engine

    Quite a few Ford badged 2.0 tdci diesel engines (as also used in a number of
    newer Pugs) are failing due to problems caused by a sticking EGR (exhaust
    gas recirculation) valve.
    Ford seem to be procuring valves to a revised design and changing these
    under warranty and paying out for hire cars whilst the new valves are on
    order. This must be starting to cost them real money!

    The mod appears to be a stronger spring to overcome the effect of the gunge
    (techy term!!) that is accumulating in the valve bodies.

    It seems strange to me that this problem is not being reported in this NG on
    the Pugs equipped with this engine.

    Anyone heard of this problem with Pug HDi engines? Maybe Pugs are not using
    EGR?

    regards

    Yes, I had this problem about 3 years ago on my Berlingo company van.

    It used to stall at idle when cold, then the warning light appeared. The EGR
    valve was replaced curing it.
