Hi All,
I've got a 150 Diesel GXL, DP Chip ARB bar IPF 900XS tow bar and ScanGuage II
I've posted a bit in the Chipping thread but thought this needed a topic of its own.
I've been running the DP Chip for about a month and "I think" its been responsible for the vehicle going into limp home 4 times (yep once a week!)
According to all the documentation from DP Chip i am advised to leave the settings (it has a 5 stage dial) left on the factory setting and up it if I change the engine spec... exhaust, intercooler etc.
When the ECU triggers the limp home "moment" and the horns from the surrounding traffic stop I restart and all is normal apart from the engine warning lamp. According to the Sanguage the trigger was P0083 which is related to fuel but thats all I have been able to find on the web.
I have spoken to Andrew at DP Chip and he seems to think it may be Electromagnetic Interference between the ECU and the chip and in turn the injectors..in my simple head that means its getting a trigger from the ECU to fire an injector and "static" from the fired injector (or rail) back to the chip again resulting in a change in rail pressure which triggers the limp home mode.
My question is has anyone else been running the DP Chip on the 150 and have you had any issues? (Yes its fitted as per the instructions in front of the battery behind the left headlight)
Cheers
Deasel
