TSB 06-06-05-001C

"Some customers may comment in a change in the exhaust note or tone when an Active Fuel Management System equipped engine is in 3 or 4 cylinder mode. Some drivers may also notice a very slight vibration in either the accelerator pedal, floor pan, and/or the steering wheel. This is a normal condition for Active Fuel Management System equipped vehicles and no repairs should be attempted."



Customer Information on Active Fuel Management

When the Active Fuel Management System is enabled, physical changes take place within the engine that allow it to run as a 3 or 4 cylinder motor with accompanying additional fuel savings. The change in exhaust tone is expected as all sound from the exhaust is the result of combustion in the engine. The ability to perceive these changes in sound are kept to very minimal levels as the Active Fuel Management System is only activated during a steady state/near steady state driving or during coast down. In both of these situations, the load on the engine is minimal and general exhaust volume (sound) is low. You may give a copy of this bulletin to your customer

Do you see any puddles of coolant anywhere? If so, track down the leak. But it sounds to me like you have a leaky head gasket or cracked engine block. You need to get this checked ASAP and definitely don't drive it if the temp gauge starts to go over about half way.

engine light stays on
the ecu will have fault codes stored to be read
that will point to the cause and a fix of the over load

my best information on a vito if diesel..says
10 amp fuse 41 . glow plugs


you must need the van on the road very badly
30 amp in a 10 amp fuse position can
melt the wiring even a fire

Have you changed the factory fitted fan before?

Hi,i had similar problem,the fan wasn't working.When i turned heater on hot it released the heat from the engine & temperature went back down.Turned out my fan relay fuse had blown.$5 fixed the problem.Hope this helps.

code p 1120 refers to throttle position sensor (TPS)
that unit responds to the accelerator pedal movement (APP)
===causes --faulty TPS--wiring -- poor connections-- TPS out of adjustment

symptoms include engine light on---no throttle response

i have x-type 2.0D 2004 last couple of weeks the engine management light has been illuminated i took it to my regular mechanic who did a dianostic check and found it to be the air flow meter which he replaced and the code was cancelled a day later the light came back on again, so i took it back he took another reading and it came back as the same fault so he cancelled the code again, but the light has come back on and although this is annoying it hasn't deteriorated the performance

There are many emission sensors in the car that will make the engine light come ON. Not to mention the big list of trouble codes for the engine light. The engine light code will give you a big clue of what's causing the accelerator pedal problem.


Best way to find out what's going on engine light is to have an auto-parts store hook up a engine code reader and tell you what the code means and the problem. Most auto-part store will do this for free.

Hello
When the light comes on , is there any engine vibration?
