  • 2008 D4D stalls Intermittently

    Hi all,
    Have had my 2008 D4D auto from the 1700km mark, always serviced on time and it has now done 72,000 Km.

    On the odd occasion the engine will just stall. It does not happen when I am driving; just when it has been started and is idling. It also does not appear to happen when cold.

    Of note is the point that the engine takes some amount of cranking before it fires up on subsequent restart attempts. Just as if there is air in the fuel system on an old style diesel engine......not what I want on a super CRD type engine.

    Does anyone have the miracle cure for this apart from some petrol and matches??

    I’d appreciate any useful feedback.

    Any more info on what the engine does, or what you do just prior to the stall? ie, on take off, on stopping, coasting or only while idling?
    Have the injectors been checked or replaced, due to the known failure in the D4D engine? Air filters clean? bled fuel lines as per the service manual? etc.

    I'm guessing... More info might help!

          I'd be getting it into a Toyota agent for a quick check for this date just in case.

            more info???
            put it this way.
            I recently drove from Townsville to Roma in a day. I checked the family into a motel, had a shower and looked for a place to eat in town. 30 minutes after switching off the car I re-started it to go out for dinner. While waiting for the kids to do up their seatbelts the car stalled??? The car was in park and handbrake applied. Just sitting there running.
            Another instance was the other day the engine was warm, I jumped in it to go out, started the engine, still in park, handbrake still applied and the engine stalled again.
            both instances were reported to Toyota in Townsville (Carney's). Computer was checked at the 70K service, no significant events recorded in computer log.

            Does that help you out??

              Can I ask what the known failure in the D4D engine is??
              why should the injectors be replaced??
              Toyota have said nothing of this fault, it is common knowledge?

                use the search for injector fault or injector failure - its been covered extensively already...

                  You're not alone NQ.
                  I've just jumped on to find a magic cure myself. I've got an 08 that has just done 50k and has the same problem. If I drive the car for more than 30mins turn it off and then try starting it within a couple of hours it will start and then stall after a few seconds. It then has to crankover for a few seconds before it will start again.
                  It does not do this every time? It feels like a fuel problem but as it only recently started doing this and I have had to return to site I wasn't able to get it back to the dealer. I'm interested to hear more from anyone who can help.

                    EGR soot build up restricting the inlet manifold perhaps?

                      Re: 2008 D4D stalls Intermittently

                      Just how does soot build up in the inlet manifold?

                      Call me dumb but isn't soot and the inlet manidold completely seperate ends of the combustion cycle.
                      I remember it as SUCK, PUSH, BANG, BLOW.......
                      If you use that simple analogy SUCK or inlet is nowhere near the BANG or detonation and BLOW or exhaust sub-cycles.

                      I hope thats not too blury as a description???

                      Thats why I ask "Just How does soot build up in the inlet manifold?".

                        To me it sounds like the idea was that buildup at the outlet may restrict the inlet (in some way) - whether the idea is right or wrong, good or bad - you asked for ideas as to what may be the issue and your getting ideas from people as to what might be the issue... Not everyone is a qualified engine mechanic on here either so I'd expect some ideas in the technical range and some in the guess range also...

                        No need to belittle them for voicing an idea...

                        EDIT: My guess - does the D4D have an air/fuel mix ratio sensor? or other similar sensor for air flow into the maifold? how's the turbo functioning, doesn't the d$d have variable pitch vanes? maybe thats not working correctly at the lower RPM and causing a restriction that stalls the engine during idle?

                          Ok then....You are dumb.

                          EGR.... exhaust gas recirculation. Look it up and all will be explained. Given the lack of information given on the problem in your OP, Soot build up from EGR was a reasonable point to raise IMO.
                          The EGR system clogging up the inlet has led to big problems for others. I blocked mine off at 21000kms as per advice from members on this board.

                            Ok I know I'm dredging up an old thread but this is the only one that came up with a search.
                            I have recently had a valve in my injector pump replaced at a shop in Perth due to it being gummed up with crap causing the fuel rail pressure to fluctuate wildly. Since then, every so often the motor stalls just after starting when it is warm. It hasn't happened when cold. Its like the fuel drains back somehow but only when warm. Very strange. Rang the guys who did the work but no luck with any definite answer. Im now almost in Broome so no chance of getting it back to them for awhile!
                            I see the OP never posted what his problem turned out to be.

                              I would at the least run a spanner over your injector lines. I had a problem with mine stalling when cold that turned out to be the under bonnet fuel filter needing another 1/8 turn, easy to do so probably worth the effort.

                              Cheers Andrew
