Hey, got a 7th gen 2.2 for the missus and it throws the CEL and flashing coil light after about 2 seconds if you floor it in high gear (4-5-6) below 2000ish RPM. Lower gears no issues, RPM above that no issues, pulls like it should. When punching it from low RPM you can hear the turbo start spooling and then it cuts into limp mode, it's not instant. Accelerating gently from lower revs doesn't trigger the CEL. I've seen that code pointing towards a clogged fuel filter but figured it's worth asking first before firing the parts cannon at it as I have zero experience with diesels.
Car has been sat for a long time prior. No issues starting hot or cold.
It's a 08 plate facelift so I'm ***uming 16901-RJL-E01 (spin on type) is the correct filter?
Thanks!
