Hi guys I have a 2007 D40 TD. I had a couple issues while I was going to and from work today. My first issue was when I got my morning paper, I turned the car off and when I restarted the car it stalled after a couple seconds of running. Restarted the car again and all was ok. So I didn't think much of it.
Then while driving home I was in second gear and I gave the engine a squirt to 4500rpm. The engine felt like it hit the rev limiter and then I had no power car wouldn't rev. Not sure but is this limp home mode? I had no warning lights on the dash. So I pulled over and shut the engine down and restarted to see if that would fix the problem. It done the same thing ran for a couple seconds then stalled. I restarted the engine and it seemed to be ok again. But I would only rev the engine to 3000rpm.
So when I was close to home I thought I would rev the engine out again to see what would happen. The engine got to 4000rpm and the same thing happened.
I have also noticed lately about the last 2000-2500k's it seems to be blowing big puffs of black smoke. I have also put in the tank a bottle of Nulon Diesel injector cleaner to see if that would reduce the black smoke.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem? My car is out of warranty next month.
Your feedback would be much appreciated.
