Engine power loss uphill
Engine power loss uphill
Hi looking some opinions on an issue im having with my 2006 grand vitara 1.9 ddis. Basically it loses power when on a constant uphill pull and begins dropping speed and rpm. Feels like there is no turbo. I put a new turbo on a few weeks ago and it has done it since that was replaced also. No warning lights come on but if i pull in turn off engine and start again problem is gone and iv full power again!?

Hi. As there have been no replies I'll pitch in and try and get the thread rolling.
Have you taken a look at the ERG valve as I understand they are very prone to gunking up on Renault diesels especially the 1.9. I understand a clean out with petrol or similar is the way to go. It might not be the issue but is worth checking.
PS I've not worked on Renault diesels only Ford and BMW / Mini. I confess to hating damn diesel things - invention of the devil if you ask me.

Just washed, not a leak from the engine!
