The DTC I got in the ecu is P1664 and P1564. They are related to the HP fuel pump electronic I assume. Maybe Ford dropped the ball with the 1.8 TDCI in some respects but there are many people who are happy with the unit. I know Ford have had problems with some of their own diesel units and have taken steps to rectify this (e.g. in the 2007 mondeo the Ford 2.0 TDCI was replaced by the PSA 2.0 HDI as found in the Mark 2 Focus). Not only has the crank speed increased from 194 rpm to 291 rpm, but the current required (211 amps against 165 amps “average”) to achieve this increase means that more energy is available for other vehicle systems. The signal on the new starter capture is a lot cleaner too. 04 1.8 tDci (100) Dual Mass Flywheel (again) - zolkie : i experience a rattling/ knocking noise every now and again when i start the engine, especially when cold. the car has done almost 60k (focus mk1 54 reg 1.8 tdci 115bps). i have been advised by my mechanic that this is due to DMF failure.
