Oh well. I got the car back yesterday. Seems like they finally got it sorted out. So after all, both, the cyl. 2 injector & the primary in-tank pump were faulty. Even Honda couldn't tell for 100% sure which one was originally the cause for this, but the main thing is that it's running again...

Haha, Certainly is!

Nope. Both the injector leak-back test, and testing the relief valve were on my to-do list, before this f*cker decided to die on the freeway few weeks ago. So then I had to get it towed away, and my insurance leaves me free of cost, only if I get it towed to a repair shop. So the car has been...

Well, they are going to leave the overhauled high-pressure pump fitted, although it wasn't the reason for this. They have admitted, that this has been the most mysterious 8gen diesel they've had yet. So a plenty of labour has been done through trial & error. Therefore I'll propably get a refund...

That's what I'm thinking too.. I Guess at the beginning they were just concentrated on the pressure test, rather than having a decent test drive with live data. Though, I think that one faulty injector doesn't "kill" the engine for 30mins like in this case. So, the reason could be both, the...

Some update. So, first they changed the high-pressure pump. It made no difference. Next they changed the in-tank pump, which also has somekind of "rough filter" built in. After this, the problems with low fuel pressure were fixed, but the engine was still misfiring and hesitating. Now they've...

Actually, I also mentioned them about the relief valve, but they seem to be fixated on the hp-pump, just like in scotsgent's case.

Got a call from Honda today. They weren't able to get out any DTC's either. But when they did the fuel pressure test with HDS, the engine didn't reach the target pressure and stalled. So after all, the main suspect is the high pressure pump. It's worth serious money.. completely new unit from...

Thx, I really appreciate your offer but I guess now it's a bit too late for that, as the car died properly this time while I was trying to perform a test drive. Afterwards I got the engine running (but very roughly), so the car got carried away by a local towing company, and is now taken to a...

So, I gave a call to the tuner company. They would charge me a good few hundred € for flashing it stock, so I thought I'd try everything else before that manouver. They said, yes, the EGR-valve position is locked only software-wise and the EGR-related DTC library is removed. So I ***embled a...

Ran the Autocom test again, stationary as always. This is what I got: Maf-values Idle (720rpm) 12,3g/s 1500 rpm 29.5g/s 2000 rpm 43g/s 2500 rpm 53,4g/s 3000 rpm 62,5g/s These are indeed higher than the reference values TourerFan shared. Air mass/stroke @3000rpm Target 540mg Actual 630mg Egr...

Ok, that's also one of the scenarios I was afraid of. The remap was done during the previous owner, so I don't know if there was symptoms like this before the remap. But I do know the company who made the remap, so I have to give them a call next monday. About a year ago, I had a couple of...

Thank you very much for sharing knowledge about the injector correction amounts! That's certainly new info for me. I found a topic about the relief valve diagnosis on a i-ctdi. This...

Thx for these additions, I'll try to get my hands on that stuff and have a go on that treatment first!

Thank you for your quick reply. I also guess that it's a fuel cut for some mysterious reason. When the car "dies" properly, first it cranks after the cutoff, but doesn't run for more than just a second. A bit later, it starts and idles but doesn't rev. So It takes totally about 30min for the car...
