Hello All,
I get a erratic idle when the car is stationary and sometimes the engine stalls. Today, I had the EML come on and I have had the code read as:
P0745 - Pressure Control Solenoid “A”
P0749 - Pressure Control Solenoid “A” Intermittent
Having done a bit of reading, I see that M272 engine has a common problem with the adjustment solenoids where the VIN number falls before #2729..30 759427 (which mine does). However I see this code is related to a Pressure Control Solenoid of which there seem to be three (A, B & C). Is this related to the common fault of the adjusters or a different solenoid?
Can someone provide any advice on the above symptoms, codes, is the diagnosis correct and next steps? Is it a straightfoward fix and rough costs?
