A local came to me for help with a Berlingo (I have the reg number) 1560cc 134g/km co2. I could likely get the VIN, but as yet don't have it.
It belonged to the chaps uncle who didn't drive it much. Anyway, it performs well around town & short journeys, but twice now, it has gone into limp mode.
They got it interrogated at a local garage and the chap said he doesn't deal with French cars.... So they came to me and I interrogated it. I deleted the codes, but I remember something about the injectors. That was 19th July. I found open circuits at brake & tail lights, so changed them, but all else was great. Codes stayed away until today. He was doing a 25 mile journey & it's limping again.
No smoke or other related issues, just limping and I need to get it back in to interrogate it again.
So with such poor information, what is the possible likely hood of this issue being caused by either open or short circuit to the injectors (I checked the wires & plugs last time & found NO fault) or could it be a CAN bus related issue that the Lingo is prone to?
Of course I will get more info once I see the car & interrogate it again. Just any heads up would be great. It's frustrating that it takes weeks or months to appear, but only with a long high speed (60mph or 70mph depending on which part of the A9 is single or dual
Thank you.
