I own an 05 Scenic with about 80,000 miles on the clock. Its the 1.9 TDI
Firstly the ERV went and was replaced in january.
Some times afterwards we started getting limp home mode and the error message “check injection”. This was after prolonged idle, But it cleared om a restart and we thought nothing of it.
But eventually it went to a garage and they have diagnosed this fault.
The waste gate is seizing causing huge over boost. They got 2.5 bars revved not that hard. Thats at least a bar over whats intended. Its also over pressure at idle which they say is causing the warning light
A new turbo is about £400 and Renault told the garage to do change boost sensor (£150 and £96)
With oil change labour and vat we are looking at over £1200
Firstly could the problem be related to the changing of the EGR?
I think my options are
pay the bill and hope that the engine holds together. Its surely being wearing out fast with the extra boost. They say the inter cooler is looking a bit weepy for example
Get them to try and free the waste gate best they can and drive it until it goes bang
