Engine cut out
Posted: Fri Jun 13, 2014 12:55 pm
Hi Guys
My friend has a 2007 Pajero Gen4 3.2 DID, 120 000Km on the clock. It runs beautifully but the other day the engine cut out completely when coasting to a stop in drive. He was traveling at very low speed when the revs dropped below 1000 rpm and then it just died. He stopped, put it in park and then started it again and it worked perfectly. This happened about four times during the day. It seems to be an intermittent fault.Could it be the Lockup solenoid that is not disengaging and killing the engine?
Anyone experienced the same problem before?
Regards,
Johndg
