Hi,

Im after some information regarding the following error message? looking for other possible reasons why i would be getting this message? - i have searched the forum and tried the low fuel possibility, unless my gauge is 190miles out.

So lets detail the scenario, start engine from cold - car starts fine, ticks over fine, drives fine, roughly hour later after car is all warmed up the car displays the dreaded "Fuel Injection System" error message. car still seems to drive ok at first, then 10 mins later, it feels like the car has lost an awful lot of power, the engine sounds different, feels like no torque or minimal. the car seems to over heat, but the temperature gauge does not go up.then the car starts judder and steering wheel vibrates, and this all seems to happen around 2000 rpm, soon as i take the car upto 3000 rpm it feels like car starts to smooth out.

if i leave the car turned off for around an hour, the car is back to normal.

I do have one horrid thought, after 3 weeks my partner owns up to me and admits to put £25 (19Litres) of petrol in the RR however there was 1/4 a tank of diesel, she only drived 500 yard before she realised, and turned the engine off, before anything happened, the solution her Brother had was to get some Diesel Cans and full the car to the brim of £150 of diesel as said you can run a diesel on a mixture, I've also read forums that some people do it on purpose to clean the fuel system.

and keeped of toppiing it up for a week and half. - until 1.5 weeks later this problem is re occurring - so I assume its related?

I Intend to do a complete fuel tank drain and refill with fresh diesel, and change diesel filters this weekend, and while im at it do a complete oil change.

Is this going to clear my issues or is it a stab in the dark? if its related, why does the car drive normally while cold? and what damage could be done? I'm assuming any where from Blocked Injectors, - to Dead Injectors, what makes it worse I had sold the car to day and they brought it back!!

My Apologises, How does one move this to the correct thread?

Redhand, its not a TDV6 its just a Diesel 2926 cc TD6 Auto, its what it says on the long book.
 
You'll have to ask a mod or delete the thread if you still can on the edit option for the top post then just paste it into the engine section or RR one

You wont get many constructive responses in here :p
 
Must be military spec with 2 tanks to get that much diesel in... or you have a leak in your tank.


Hope you get it sorted
