Another happy customer;) cheers mate, any problems just let me know👍🏻

Cheers mate, I’ll try my best to get some done mate. Really enjoyed doing this for my mate instead just working on my own projects!

No programming needed mate, from my experience

No mate

Glad I can help matw

Yes mate those were the symptoms, I found it was smoking in the engine bay too creating a big mess where the diesel is cooking on top in the engine

No problem mate!

No need for coding mate👍🏻 cleared the code after first start up

Could it be the glow plugs?

You probably want to get a code reader out and see what codes it’s theowing

@@BTR_REBUILD The code reader said that, but problem is im not sure if changing them would fix it 🥲

The TDCI motors 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6 are superb offerings from Ford. They can take quite a beating before serious wear can occur. About glow plugs which you speculate is the problem is a miniscule one. The Glow Plug's function is mostly when starting a cold engine. When you're trying to get the engine to turnover, the glow plugs heat the diesel so you can get the car running without cold start fuss - usually smoke, vibration, or repeated cranks to get it going. It doesn't stay on while the car in being driven for miles. Someone on Quora even asked this once. If glow plugs are critical to functioning of a car and whether a vehicle can run without one. The answer is it depends on where you are. If you experience frequent dip in ambient temperature, glow plugs are necessary to reduce the diesel viscosity. But if you're from tropical areas, you'll not even notice the plugs in operation or its effect on the car's performance. In warmer places, when plugs fail, they simply don't matter much or at all. But not something you should ignore when you're in Europe or other colder places. That said, these engines (TDCI) are somewhat notorious for injector issues, although not in the early days. Here, in India we have the same motor on cars like Figo Type 1, Fiesta, and few other Ford models from 2011 to 2018. In the used car markets, almost all 1.4 TDCI needs injector maintenance. Sometimes people MacGyver it by using diesel injector cleaners from Abro (best), LiquiMoly (next best), and Wurth (if it's the only choice). These cleaners mask vibrations and issues temporarily while you figure out something long term. Another problem with the TDCI engine is the carbon build up in the intake manifold and EGR valve. Most people aware of this issue, get their TDCI intake manifolds and EGR cleaned once every 80,000 km.

@@Sobin16 In my case I'm from Spain (hot country in general), the car doesn't gives any problem while driving except the limitation of power which is a bit dangerous when overpasses and that all. Even if my car doesn't ever ignites the glow plugs, the failure they're giving its the concern to be fixed. And I'm not sure what to do, but that diesel cleaner sounds a good-to-go idea! Thanks a lot my friend

Code reader come up with a misfire?

Doesn’t need to be coded👍🏻

@BTR_REBUILD cheers mate is number 4 second one from gear box

@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sx from memory, it goes 4-3-2-1 from timing chain side to the gearbox. As I originally accidentally changed number 1 instead of 4 and then learned that it’s backwards on these engines. Hope that helps

@BTR_REBUILD ok ill try that mine is a 03 plate iam in UK here or try taking the leads off one at a time will that help thank you

@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sxYeah that’s the best way, see if it changes. If not that’s your missing injector

No mate, for my other cars I’ve got the Haynes manual to help me work

Thanks bro👍🏻
