108cdi VITO - PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

[Andyb3528]

Initial problems were not turning over and going into limp mode on steady run.
Replaced new clutch switch, starter motor, one way fuel valve, new O rings.
Van now pulls like a train and starts well but goes into limp mode when up to running temperature.

Any ideas appreciated!!!!

Sounds similar to the problems I had with my DPF/pressure sensor which turned out to be the sensor in the end. I almost went ahead and ordered a new DPF. Thankfully the advice on here from Dieselman prevented me doing so.

You can have the DPF removed and it will use less fuel if you do that due to not having to keep regenerating.

Many thanks for that. It's a 2003 model, so I'm wondering if it has a DPF?

No, I don't think so. 2005 onwards have DPF IIRC.
