Hi, I bought a 56 plate multiwagon multijet JTD Dynamic 120 around 4months ago, it's my second stilo, the first being written of by a wall around 4 yrs ago.!
I had an issue with starting problems but found two of the glow plugs th be faulty so replaced them all and it started great after that.
A few weeks later and The car suffered a loss of power whilst towing my caravan, very embarrassing, foot to the floor and doing 20 mph in 2nd gear for around 25 miles!!!!!!
EML came on too.
Under advice , I removed and cleaned out the EGR and Air mass sensor which gave a slight improvement but no acceleration from standstill or when needed at higher revs, almost like there is no turbo fitted.
Looking at the posts here I seem to think that the turbo control solenoid is at fault and not the other items.
I have a registered copy of FiatECUScan from my previous days of stilo,ownership plus the coloured leads and an Elm 327(?), with wich I managed to clear the EML and reset the service coupons to 0, the light stayed off for a week or two and I still had the power fault but the light has now come back on, so I am going to replace the solenoid and then reset it again, hopefully that will give me that lovely burst of power when it's needed.
Any other ideas or advice would be welcome in trying to solve my problem.
