oreilloj Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Hi all, I have a 2009 fiesta diesel 1.4 tdci. This has happened a couple of times now and I'm slightly worried, I've booked in to be looked at but wanted to put feelers out to see what this could end up costing me. I was driving on a dual carriageway the other day when at about 65mph, the car seemed to lose power, it didn't cut out but a warning light came on the dash as well as a message saying there was an engine malfunction and to get a service. The car had little or no acceleration and even after the light went off and I began driving again, it seemed to chug a little intermittently. Was wondering if anyone could shed some light on what the problem might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oreilloj Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 I've only had the car a few months and while it has a FSH I don't have a list of things that have been done to it :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I'd get the fuel filter changed first as it's the cheapest & easiest potential fix as well as a probable cause & often overlooked & then go from there, if it makes no difference you have at least eliminated it as a potential culprit at little cost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
