I've been having a blitz on my Stilo's faults and with your help I'm down to the last one...
The car (1.9 JTD MW) drives fine until I rev to 2600rpm when I get the "Engine Fault" light and bing bing bing. It still drives OK and as soon as the revs drop the fault clears.
Having searched on this site for hours about the EGR, MAP, MAF and overboost solenoid valve, I decided to check the turbo valve actuator - I got Mrs Wife to rev the car to about 3500rpm but I could not see the actuator rod move at all. I checked to see if I could move it by pressing with a screwdriver and it seems to move OK.
So I think the cause of the fault could be that the overboost solenoid valve is not working (I have previously relocated it to the side of battery)
Before I go and buy a new one:
1. Do you clever people think I'm barking up the right tree, and
2. Do you know what voltages to expect on the overboost valve's connector and at what rpm should signals be sent to it ?
I'm going to donate now for all the help I've received from this site
