Engin cuts out at Idle

Johanva · Thu Feb 23, 2017 9:40 am

My Pajero Sport ran perfect. Does not miss or anything. Now and then the car cuts out at idle. I thought it was diesel filter or air filter, and replaced the same (even before the next service). Car still did the same. I removed my Race chip as I though this could cause the problem, but to no avail. Car still cuts out at idle. While driving I can not notice any problem at all. No power loss nothing.

Anybody has some advise or experienced the same? How do I fix this?

Thanks

Johan

I had the exact same on my pajero DiD (2008) but never found the cause as I sold it. Diagnostic found nothing. Subscribed here to find out if there is a root cause.

Thanks Kurt,

I have a diagnostic tool, but as you say, it does not show anything wrong. ARGHHHHHHHHH

Maybe just the idle speed setting?

I took my "Mislukke Bussie" to Hennie @ High View Autobody in Randburg (083 633 7131). He did some "stuff" to it and it is now PERFECT. Even lighter on fuel again also. It drives like a new Pajero. It has not yet died once at idle, and the idle seems smoother.

Thanks Hennie, Much apreciated

Please elaborate on the "stuff", it will be very useful for us.

Hi all

I also commented on this issue on another thread - https://www.pajeroclub.co.za/forum/view ... 326#p47326

However, in my case the stalling issue I was experiencing turned out to be a faulty suction control valve.
