vauxhall combo fault codes...

[Alex J]

its the 1.7dti engine, on a 51 plate, first code is p0370 pump position sensor ,and the second is p0400 egr valve. problem is after having a look on a few forums, the first one says crank sensor on most posts, sounds to simple to me:confused: , and an egr valve , dose anyone on here use the vauxhall owners network, or vx online where these answers where, and would you trust or had these problems with your van?? codes where read with a snap-on code reader, thank you :cool:

Pump position sounds fair enough for a crank sensor?

Pump position sounds fair enough for a crank sensor?ill get on the case then, im going to rip them out now:d ( no hammers!)

[Alex J]

next daft question, where is the egr valve and crank sensor, i kant find both of them??:confused:

[dyl rhino]

crank codes are usually engine speed signal probs. if its a crank does it take ages to fire up. there could be a fault with the pump itself if it comes up with an error for the pump speed. p0400 will probs be a faulty egr valve. :)

crank sensor is on the rear side of engine just above the drivers inner joint. egr valve is bellow the ecu on top of the engine. hope it helps

[Alex J]

right, ive got this of the top of the engine, dont know if this is it, it has a snapped vac pipe on it, and a pierburg part number pa6.6-gf35, but i cant find any info anywhere:confused: ...

that aint the egr valve. it could be the solenoid controling it though and thats the reason why youve got the dtc stored. follow the vaccum pipes to see where they lead.

If it's broke marris, replace!

[Alex J]

right, im under the piece of s*it, there is another what looks like a vacum soilnoid with no pipe on it, under the starter motor, and the crank sensoer is well easy to get to ffs:mad: , and its easy to say its broken , replace it, what is it:confused: , going to smash the piece of s*it up.

[John]

go get the axe! lol doesn't it go on the other end of the solenoid above?

[dyl rhino]

if i rember rightly the other solenoid controls the wastegate operation.:)

crank sensor is on the rear side of engine just above the drivers inner joint. egr valve is bellow the ecu on top of the engine. hope it helps+rep added for help, all the bits are of, ready to go to vauxhall when i get up, cant find the valve on any motor factors or ebay, also noticed the oil return pipe had split on the turbo, i hate this van:mad: lol

You can just do the "pedal test" instead of using a code reader lol lol

[davidfox280585]

i have already said i have a valve you pwenis!!!!!!!!!!

[Alex J]

Who's been playing, looks like a right mess/bodge you know melol , im giving burgo and baxter a run for there money!!

the van is fixed (i think) new solenoid, and new oil return, and new timing sensor fitted, and lastly, the oil return part that the rubber hose had rotted threw, so fixed that with a new onelol . stupid van, ill bump this thread in the next few days when it breaks down again:thumb:
