Hi all,
I have an issue with my ride...
1-check engine light on (sometimes normal when engine is restarted)
2-lost a bit of power (when check engine light is on)
3-engine hard to run over 2100-2400 rpm
4-while check engine is on with the issue...sometimes runs normal, sometimes lost a bit of power

Anything has any experience with this issue?? any opinion?

ps. just repaired my intercooler, this started the 2nd day after intercooler is repaired, but I think this has nothing to see with the intercooler, maybe just coincidence.

Best to get the diagnostics run over it.

Could be a heap of things at least the diag tool will give you some idea. Don't disconnect the battery otherwise it will lose all the fault codes.

We had a 2003 work GU ZD30 that used to do this all the time. The lack of power is it going into limp mode and I think in the end the problem was a faulty EGR valve.

could be a faulty MAF sensor, mine had a issue after it went for a swim and it kept sending the car into limp mode, new sensor fixed it

Anthony, Hi, Dirty fuel will bring up 0707 code (injection timing)caused by low fuel pressure, check filter!!

My engine light came on when i had an older fuel filter on and there was loss of power as your describing

Sounds like either MAF or fuel filter I have had the same issue with both problems. Down load the ZD30 document at the top of the GU forum and it will tell you how to recall the codes.

We had the same problem with ours, engine light on so thought it might have been water or air in the fuel, drained it still didn`t fix it, change the MAF and that fixed it, running better than ever, maybe it hadn`t been change yet after doing 143000.as it is second hand 1.
Cheers

I had the same problem with mine and it ended up being crackedfuel filter housing found this by using clear hose to the fuel pump from the filter.

There seem to be many causes of your problem, I would go with some others and suggest the Mass Airflow Sensor. I would also suggest you visit a good mechanic and speak to him about your problem and mention the Mass Airflow Sensor. Good luck
