Great post, thanks! Exact same problem, 45-55ish mph, under load. RHS inner CV joint, most places in UK told me you can't get them separate to the CV axle but can be got from here, https://www.driveshaftparts.co.uk/
Thought I would update. Car is running after 3 new injectors, 1 refurbished and a refurbished high pressure pump.
The injectors were knackered and there was a few bits of metal under the fuel intake valve so got the pump checked out.
Just need to get the injectors coded and this doesn't seem...
So I tried brake cleaner, no joy. Cracked injector nuts and got fuel, tightened and then battery died on first attempt , reckon it was pretty old. Certainly not changed myself and had car 3 years.
Charged overnight and tried again. Decided to put on clear tubes into bottles rather than fuel...
Oh dear, that doesn't sound good!
The dpf cleaner did nothing sprayed in the intake but with the dpf on the bench it cleaned it very well, although only tested for a couple of weeks in use.
Thanks for the comments, makes sense. Will try the suggestions.
Worried I might have gone a full turn too far when putting the injectors back together and that's somehow blocked them. That seems unlikely though as a full turn looser wasn't tight at all!
Cheers @mlkehunt I think I read the 8th gen is self-priming so though it would all be peachy.
Will try your suggestions. I've got some dpf cleaner left, will that get it going if I spray that in the air intake?
Hey, new here and what a great forum!
Hoping someone on here might be inspired to help a diy'er with a love for his 2009 2.2 es GT tourer but not a great deal of know-how!
After revent dpf failure and garage said time to get a new car I decided to have a go at cleaning it myself and it worked...
