Superb vid. I'd already spotted the collapsing boost hose and diagnosed turbo seized solid. Fitted new turbo and low and behold the old one on the floor was mysteriously freed up again. Very wierd. Not the usual turbo fail. Cold side off, nothing wrong in there. And nothing short of a total engine explosion with no intercooler would smash an exhaust turbine. Then I saw your vid, spot on info, found a 2 pence sized half moon chunk of metal in the turbo hot side which had broken off the egr cooler flap. And travelled 18" along a pipe including a 2" vertical bit to get there. Mad. Cause was the weld had broken from cooler flap external spindle to lever arm and left it flapping around with no spring tension. That's what did it. There was still half a flap left in the cooler so I wouldn't advise leaving it in case the other half followed and went through a new turbo. I'd say that the egr cooler was at least twice as long a job to change than the turbo. A few finger tippy wrist twisty blind bolts. And a little bracket above the jubilee type V band clamp that is held with just two 8mm headed bolts, one impossible to see, but needs to come off to have any chance with the clamp. Cleared fault codes and started up and the dash warning came back on, had to carry out adaptation reset on egr, egr cooler valve and also the maf before it was all happy again. (With bosch KTS) Every days a school day in this game. I'll certainly be listening for rattling flap noises on these engines every time I see one from now on.
wow Marty thank you mine has made that metal sound for months throws injector code etc even completely shut down no power then fixed itself .. then started throwing codes and stopped no power pulled apart found that half flap stuck in my egr valve cleaned it out all good as new thank you from Australia 😁
Great informative vid, this has just happened on my movano B today. Injection light on dash along with check emissions, no power. Got egr fault code so spent the evening stripping out egr and cooler and found the flap wedging open the flap on the egr valve. The flap looks completely intact so hopefully no other damage caused 🙏🙏
Hi Marty, thanks for the video, my Nv400 just started with the exact symptoms in your video, just checked the pipe and guess what sucking together so looks like a new turbo, good job it's still under warranty (just) Keep up the good work mate
Just an update to help others, something had chewed through my cables causing same symptoms, spliced in some new and soldered together cured the issues, apparently its a common issue so the main dealer tells me
Brilliant video - very clear! Thank you Marty! I have just bought a B Movano 2.3 - so probably identical. The turbo works but complaint is 299 - low boost pressure. Motorway hills need a drop down to get the speed up again. Now I've seen this - I daren't drive it. Alot of older cars have egr blank off - maybe its a way forward.... I can see a period of huffing and puffing ahead :)
This video was spot on with what was wrong with my van only problem now is after putting a recon turbo and replacing the egr I still have the check injection and emission warning signs come up. The mechanic says he has checked everything possible and has no idea what it could be but the van seems to run fine now. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Hi, thanks for the video, I’ve found the flap wedged in the egr pipe. Is it just a semi circle flap? Just checking there isn’t anything else stuck somewhere! 👍🏻
I think I was really lucky - my EGR cooler was leaking water (My starter live sheared off and arced on it causing a hole!). When I took it off I saw the flap rattling around but still inside the cooler - PHEW! I am getting a mist of oil in my intercooler, is this a sign that the turbo seals are failing or possibly a blocked breather? Really useful video by the way.
hi Marty thanks for the video. Should we be looking for 2 of them half circles(egr cooler flap) or only 1? we found 1 so far. thanks! renault master 2016
Great video mate - My light has come on and i can also hear a metallic jingling noise as you put the power on... cant see anything loose on the outside.... I wondered if this was the flap 'dying' on the inside - you ever hear any noises like this?
By the time the van makes it to the workshop the metal has usually jammed or damaged the turbo I haven't actually expected the fault while driving sorry.
Hi Marty, Thanks for the video! My turbo hose flattens for a moment (half a second) then expands and goes hard is this usual? my van is the same model as this one. I also have the injection fault, check emissions warnings, and stop light warnings on. but I just drove 1800kms with no noticeable loss of power and no smoke?

I have fixed the vacuum pipes problem. The turbo pipe is still shrinking. I have cleaned the DPF and the intercooler cooler is all clear. It must be the turbo jammed. Should I take the turbo inlet pipe off to check if the fan is spinning or jammed? Thanks
Had this issue yesterday. The van goes into limp mode, if rev pass 2500rpm but as long as I don’t rev pass 2500rpm I can get up to speed and keep going. Took it to a mechanic today and plugged it in and the code came to something that relate to computer module.
@@Martysworkshop it doesn’t. The mechanic reset the codes and the van rev fine until I took it out of the garage and the warning lights on the dash came back on. Went for a dog walk, restart the van and all the lights disappear, until it rev above 2500rpm. It also messed the fuel gauge because I know I have less than half a tank but the gauge showing I have more than half. Now back at the garage.
Hello robert the Dpf differential pressure rubber pipe is common to split on thease vans so i would check that first, other than that you would need to get it plugged in, hope this helps
Hi mate So with regards to replacing the EGR cooler did you replace it and you see the metal flat piece that’s broken off where will I find that when I split the Turbo ?
I haven’t got a GR valve for coming up on the Diagnostics but have got boost pressure circuit too low and when I arrive to 3000 revs the boost pipe clamps in so sucks instead of blows has to be a Turbo fault no ?
Hello Chris, so the flap usually falles to the exhaust side hitting the impella, but I have heard of it wedging in the tube in the exhaust side casting, so if you remove the cast snail and can't see it cheak inside the cast snail, also we used to replace egr cooler but found that without that flap the engine opporates completely normal so we donr replace it any more! We have a fleet of 50+ of these vans and haven't had 1 issue, thank you for watching
Hi Marty, thanks for this video, think this is what’s up with my Vivaro. Do you have any idea if this falls under service/ maintenance plan or (extended) warranty? Or are these wear & tear parts? Thanks. Rose
Sorry another question: if that pipe doesn’t go flat, but all other symptoms you describe are there, could it still be the same/ similar problem, or something different?
I would say this should be covered under warranty or maintenance plan as it is no a wear and tear part, and no unfortunately if the pipe is not sucking flat then the turbo is not restricted, you would need to get it plugged in I'm afraid, thank you for watching and thank you for your input.
Hi Marty, great vid. quick question. I have both of these fault codes showing on mine but only occasionally, also I don't have the suction on the boost pipe. I do however lose some power when the lights come on. Any ideas?
Thats just a generic warning I'm afraid! It could be anything related to the powertrain. You would need to get it plugged in to see what is causing the warnings to come on as it could be many things. Sorry i couldn't help mpre
Hi Marty, Do you have a video of you removing the turbo. That would be very helpful if so. Or maybe point me in the right direction of step by step removal details of any description, video, pictures etc. Thanks for the help so far.👍
Hello unfortunately i did this in work so could not film it sorry, i just wanted to show people this fault as it i quite common. I will see if i can sort out some information for you during the week, is your turbo water cooled or not? So i can give you the correct information.
Hi Marty, would you think it possible to remove turbo on Renault master from the top rather than underneath. Struggling for space on axle stands. Sub frame in the way.
Hi I v got exactly the same fault on a 2015 2.3 Movano. Have checked the turbo at inlet end. Springs free with no play. But pipes are collapsing when running. Any ideas. Thanks in advance.
Have you spun the turbo at both ends? I would guess that the shaft has snapped in the turbo, you would need to remove the exhaust outlet and check it, hope this helps
Hey Marty, Thanks for the video. Love your work! Got the check emissions/check injection double while driving today and then had a friendly passer by plug in to my OBD port and I got error code P0101 accompanied by the text - Mass or Volume Air Flow A Circuit Range-Performance. Any thoughts on what this could be?
Hi mate had this fault got the metal out didn’t snap turbo put it all back together vans running fine but I’m getting this fault code p1205-13 exhaust after treatment fuel injector control circuit open any ideas I didn’t change the egr cooler is that the problem?
The lads can remove no water cooled version of tease turbos in around an hour, the book time to remove and refit is 2.7 hours witch is more than achievable. I hope this helps and thank you for watching
Mate u got any ideas...git a renault master 2013 build. Been driving ok...yesterday morning fine, then went to start in arvo, "braking fault" comes on along with abs system warni g light plus car with skid marks in triangle light. The van started and i drove home .ok (10 kms away) .i think in safety mode as speedometer stayed at zero although i was driving ok..anyway .got home car wont start at all now. Tried plugging scan tool in...as did roadassistance guy who i got out...both scan tools couldnt read anything...almost as if vans computer gonein to some sort of off mode. The battery is fine. Any ideas would b appreciated!!!
@@Martysworkshop no worries..taking to mechanic today, whos initial thought was that it could be abs module which can trip the vans computer system..anyway, appreciate yr reply..just fyi, will let u know what it was ..cheers again👍
@@Martysworkshop just a quick question...have u ever seen the ecu not responding and scan tool unable yo readcodes? Possibly thinking that perhaps its not necessarily a "braking fault" as dash indicates, but possibly the ecu itself that is the issue..if this is the case..could it be a blown main fuse (one that sits on the battery itself or a faulty relay inside engine fuse box)? I know its really hard to diagnose anything on u tube comment section....just seeing if i could b on right lines....! Any suggestions appreciated..thanks again👍👍
If the abs pump is causing the can system to drop outturn I would try inplugging the abs pump and see if you can communicate then? Or just see if it starts,
Wow, great explanation and video, thanks! I've been trying to find the source of rattling in Master 3 for weeks and only discovered this 'common fault' today. The van runs fine with no fault codes at present, so does that mean I'm lucky and can get away with removing the flap from my EGR cooler? I'm hoping you will confirm the rattling can be caused by airflow, rather than impact with the turbo vanes?
@@Martysworkshop I can confirm that the rattling noise is the flap/spring assembly in the EGR cooler. Luckily for me, the flap hasn't broken off, so the turbo hasn't been damaged yet. Marty, do you have any tips on getting the cooler off, or removing the flap? I've taken off the EGR valve, but am really struggling to get to the pipe clamp on the cooler that is hidden under the nearside of the intake manifold. I ended up taking most of the front of the van off to improve access, but still can't reach that jubilee clip. All I want to do is stop the rattling and prevent the flap from ending up in the turbo. Blanking off the EGR valve to stop airflow would probably help, but what to do about the flap?
@@Martysworkshop no I checked not long after messaging 😂 the van has only 34k on the clock it's a good job i don't own it the vans are scrap, I drive for the health service and we have at least 10 of them in our area and most have issues with them 🙄
My 2015 movano has come up with p0402 regarding egr it pulls fine through all gears just very poor in first on set off seems to be boosting ok a specialist is looking at it Thursday but 2k repairs if its this issue mine also has injection light on and the eml was regarding the above code hopefully it's not the worse case scenario
Thanks for the info. Do you need to change the EGR cooler as well or is it not essential? I have the same issue. Not took Turbo off yet but pipe collapsing the same and loss of power. Been told Turbo jammed. Been told to check oil feeder pipe to the turbo for blockage. As this can dry out the turbo and cause seized problem.
I haven't yet seen any oil issues with this engine if I'm honest but the engine runs fine without the flap, i look after a fleet of these van and that all are running without it. Thank you for watching
Not a clue sorry I own a 2.2 transit witch has been good to me but I know the newer 2.0 can be a nightmare. As for renault masters we maintain a fleet of 13 plate vans and only seem to do generally repairs.
@@Martysworkshop thank you Marty . 2013 is euro 5. I have euro 5 puma 2.2 engine in my boxer and it’s fab. 174k no issue ,but ulez will come unfortunately.
Hi, thanks for the video, when checking the pipe it sucks in a little but not flat like you showed, would it still be the same thing. I have been having trouble for ages with injection fault on dash and a P0299 turbo underboost fault code but only recently a loss of power and it wont rev above 2800
Hi Marty, great video, I have had this problem with my 2014 master. Loss of power, engine light and check injection message. Pipe is flattening when revved. I have managed to split turbo in situ, the impeller on hot side is damaged but there is no sign of any debris ? I am concerned that if I put new turbo on that whatever caused the damage might get back into new turbo. Where will this debris have gone ? Exhaust or Cat I presume ? And if so, can it do more damage if I dont find it and remove ? Also, is a viable option to just replace the turbo cartridge rather than the complete turbo assembly ? Thanks. Rich.
Hello Richard, we always replace the complete turbo, but I have replaced the caset before in older vehicles, just make sure you get a good make, as for the flap if it has gone through the impeller then I would say it may be quite finely broken up but definitely cheak the dpf for any bits,
@@Martysworkshop Hi Marty, you were spot on with this video. When I checked the dpf I found the remainder of the flap in the housing leading to the dpf. Van is running fine now but one small question for you. When I test drove van, everything was fine but heater was blowing cold and temp gauge stayed at cold for about 2miles, then quickly rose to normal and heater went warm. I'm guessing this was indicating an air lock in coolant system ? at the same time, I got the check injection message and spanner on dash ? I got home, switched off engine. Started engine again and message and spanner have gone. Is this something I need to investigate or some rogue message connected to the temperature gauge issue I had ? Van seems to be running fine. Thanks for your help and keep up the great work. Rich.
These vans are common for throwing a fault code if air gets into the ear coolant pump so I would say it would probably be that, the air will come back to the bottle during driveing so shuld be fine
It depends on If the flap has jammed the turbo before it can cause damage then it is just a matter of removing the turbo to remove the flap, but if it has bounced around in there for a while before it jammed it then unfortunately you will have to replace the turbo!! As for the metal flap we just leave them missing and it doesn't really effect it to be honest, but if you wanted it back 100% then you would have to replace the egr cooler too, hope this helps
Hi. General enquiry really if you don’t mind. My turbo destroyed itself so I’ve had it replaced by a reputable garage. But even before the turbo went and since, I’ve been getting the turbo under boost error. Engine has been cleaned. Could it be a pipe issue? Injector maybe. I’m really stuck with figuring this one out. Thanks in advance.
No when this goes it jams the turbo sold, so you would notice the lack of performance. I'm not sure sorry I would definitely pressure test from the turbo to the intake first but you would need a kit to do that.
Hi mate, if pipe collapsing, does that defo mean it the turbo? I’ve got the check injection and check emissions warnings and van in limo mode. Mechanic thinks it’s an electrical fault? But I’ve checked and the pipe defo sucks in.
@@Martysworkshop hi Marty, I’ve already got the turbo replaced. But everytime I get the mechanic to turn off the spanner light it comes back on saying check injection
My Renault master has the check injection fault Stop light on. Has loss of power on hills and on motorway in top gears 5/6 it seems to come on when accelerating. One guy said it could be the dpf being blocked but I’m Leaning towards it being something else. As it’s not consistent in when the power loss goes. Any help be appreciated
Hi Marty, following on from an earlier message I had loss of power and P0299 code, I paid and had someone check the turbo to which they said the turbo was at fault, I couldn't get anyone reasonable enough to change it so I spent the day changing the turbo myself on axle stands! When I did my test drive after I still got the check ignition and code P0299 with loss of power, I am exhausted and deflated. Have you any ideas what else it could be? Also what is the sensor called that goes into the Turbo?
Hello steven thats sounds like a bad day in my book do I'm happy to help, so when you rev the engine does the pipe still suck in? Also did you replace the whole turbo or just the cartridge? Do you mean the flap that causes this fault?
@@Martysworkshop Thanks for the reply, the turbo hose no longer sucks in, yes changed the whole turbo but i have not taken it apart to see if there is damage. I didn't notice before but the code now reads P0299 $07e8pd and $07e8 although its a cheap reader
@@Martysworkshop I got a vauxhall vivaro no power to pull off looked at air side seems fine on play no oil spins ok got check injection on my computer any idea mate
@Martysworkshop no mate can't pull of at all engine sounds OK when I rev it no smoke coming out of exhaust had check emissions light on but gone off I was told its timing chain then turbo but I don't think it's any of that they just want to make money mate could it possibly be map sensor mate
Hia there, do you have a video of how to fix this problem before the flap comes off and kills the turbo??? Also what year nv400 have this problem. Thanks loads 👍
This engine is in the vans from 2010 until the add blue engine, im not sure how you would do this as the flap is in the egr cooler, only way to prevent would be to replace it. Thank you for you question.
@@Martysworkshop is there a pipe thats In between the egr cooler and the turbo? If so maybe you could put a wire mesh in somehow to stop the flap going into the turbo
evening,i have a master 2014,the last few days i can feel a slight surge when driving and the engine temp is up only slightly,if i put my foot down there is plenty of power,the check injection light has come on once but not since but i can still feel the slight surge?,I,m lead to believe its possible the egr cooler any ideas? regards
Do you know if this is also a common fault in a Renault trafic? I’ve got the injection fault showing and code P0299 however the van drives no different
@@Martysworkshop Ah cheers for the reply, I have had the fault cleared and as of yet it's not returned, hopefully it was just something the ECU didn't like and everything back to normal now
I have a trafic parked up after turbo leaked and began feeding oil into the engine....... frightening experience as engine revved up to the max and brought the motorway I was on to a near halt with plumes of smoke......I immediately stuck it into 5th and stalled it after about 15 seconds. I'm replacing turbo tomorrow and hoping engine isn't too badly damaged
Most common cause of this fault is the dpf differential pressure pipe splits, its a rubber hose that goes from the sensor on the chassis to the exhaust, check that if not you will need to plug it in. Thank you for supporting the channel
What if, the check injection code comes on whilst driving, power is lost somewhat, but turning off and on again removes the fault code... only happened twice so far, but I'd presume if it was the turbo, this would be a consistent fault, not one that disappears by turning off and on?
No you are spot on with what you say once the turbo jams it has a constant loss of power, i would get it plugged in and diagnosed as there will be a fault code present ant it will tell you why it is loosing power / going into limp, thank you for watching
5 error codes including turbo boost and air intake, so cleared the codes and waiting for them to pop up again (hopefully just one or two errors), to diagnose correctly
Hello Marty! I recorder that video to ask you if you can advice me: ua-cam.com/video/mp8e981YHtk/v-deo.html Renault Master 2013 2.3 125, 250 000km of mileage. The pipe is not collapsing when I rev the engine up. But it has a big turbo lag , and from my observation and based on my measurements via bluetooth interface - it seems it has a problem with transitioning from "no turbo" conditions (like going downhill or with a wind from the back) to the acceleration mode -> it waits for 2-3 seconds and then it accelerate/jerks "rapidly" (if renault master can accelerate rapidly ;-)) I put some informatino and screens on my video. My mechanic (two of them already...) replaces bunch of parts/ or swapped others: parts replaced: - air flow meter - exhaust temperature sensor parts swapped for the test (didn't help): - vacuum pump - egr valve - TURBO BOOST PRESSURE SOLENOID - boost pressure sensor but nothing has helped so far. Could you give me some hints where to look? Thank you :-)

Hi Marty, great vid. quick question. I have both of these fault codes showing on mine but only occasionally, also I don't have the suction on the boost pipe. I do however lose some power when the lights come on. Any ideas?
Thsnk you for watching. So What are the fault codes??
@@Martysworkshop mostly I'm getting 'Injection Fault' but also sometimes 'Check emissions'
Thats just a generic warning I'm afraid! It could be anything related to the powertrain. You would need to get it plugged in to see what is causing the warnings to come on as it could be many things. Sorry i couldn't help mpre
Hi Marty, Do you have a video of you removing the turbo. That would be very helpful if so. Or maybe point me in the right direction of step by step removal details of any description, video, pictures etc. Thanks for the help so far.👍
Hello unfortunately i did this in work so could not film it sorry, i just wanted to show people this fault as it i quite common. I will see if i can sort out some information for you during the week, is your turbo water cooled or not? So i can give you the correct information.
@@Martysworkshop not sure about water cooled. It’s 2012 DCI100 eco5. If that helps. Thank you. 👍
Euro 5.
Hi Marty, would you think it possible to remove turbo on Renault master from the top rather than underneath. Struggling for space on axle stands. Sub frame in the way.
You have to remove the dpf filter witch is underneath but not sure how difficult it would be as i have only done these from below
Hi I v got exactly the same fault on a 2015 2.3 Movano. Have checked the turbo at inlet end. Springs free with no play. But pipes are collapsing when running. Any ideas. Thanks in advance.
Have you spun the turbo at both ends? I would guess that the shaft has snapped in the turbo, you would need to remove the exhaust outlet and check it, hope this helps
@@Martysworkshop have just separated turbo. Can see the flap stuck in the airway. Turbo looks ok tbf. 👍🤞
Thats a new one to us here, thank you for letting me know. And thank you for supporting the channel.
Hey Marty,
Thanks for the video. Love your work!
Got the check emissions/check injection double while driving today and then had a friendly passer by plug in to my OBD port and I got error code P0101 accompanied by the text - Mass or Volume Air Flow A Circuit Range-Performance.
Any thoughts on what this could be?
Renault Master 2016 MWB van
Could possibly be air flow sensor, boost leak, egr valve stuck open, turbo fault, dpf blocked, have you got a lack of power?
Hi mate had this fault got the metal out didn’t snap turbo put it all back together vans running fine but I’m getting this fault code p1205-13 exhaust after treatment fuel injector control circuit open any ideas I didn’t change the egr cooler is that the problem?
I'm not sure sorry
What's your opinion on the 2018 2.3L Bi-Turbo engines? How reliable are they?
I don't know much about them sorry thank you for your question
Great video thanks for all the info too. Would you know how much I should expect to pay labor for fitting? How many hours ? Thanks very much
The lads can remove no water cooled version of tease turbos in around an hour, the book time to remove and refit is 2.7 hours witch is more than achievable. I hope this helps and thank you for watching
@@Martysworkshop that's awesome and very helpful. Thanks loads
Mate u got any ideas...git a renault master 2013 build. Been driving ok...yesterday morning fine, then went to start in arvo, "braking fault" comes on along with abs system warni g light plus car with skid marks in triangle light. The van started and i drove home .ok (10 kms away) .i think in safety mode as speedometer stayed at zero although i was driving ok..anyway .got home car wont start at all now. Tried plugging scan tool in...as did roadassistance guy who i got out...both scan tools couldnt read anything...almost as if vans computer gonein to some sort of off mode. The battery is fine. Any ideas would b appreciated!!!
Not a clue sorry, we run a fleet of 40 of thease vans and I have never seen that tbh
@@Martysworkshop no worries..taking to mechanic today, whos initial thought was that it could be abs module which can trip the vans computer system..anyway, appreciate yr reply..just fyi, will let u know what it was ..cheers again👍
@@Martysworkshop just a quick question...have u ever seen the ecu not responding and scan tool unable yo readcodes? Possibly thinking that perhaps its not necessarily a "braking fault" as dash indicates, but possibly the ecu itself that is the issue..if this is the case..could it be a blown main fuse (one that sits on the battery itself or a faulty relay inside engine fuse box)? I know its really hard to diagnose anything on u tube comment section....just seeing if i could b on right lines....! Any suggestions appreciated..thanks again👍👍
If the abs pump is causing the can system to drop outturn I would try inplugging the abs pump and see if you can communicate then? Or just see if it starts,
Wow, great explanation and video, thanks!
I've been trying to find the source of rattling in Master 3 for weeks and only discovered this 'common fault' today.
The van runs fine with no fault codes at present, so does that mean I'm lucky and can get away with removing the flap from my EGR cooler? I'm hoping you will confirm the rattling can be caused by airflow, rather than impact with the turbo vanes?
Fingers crossed 🤞 for you, and thank you for your feedback.
@@Martysworkshop Thanks Marty. I'm going to have a go at getting the cooler off today and will report back with the findings afterwards.
Cheers I would love to know.
@@Martysworkshop I can confirm that the rattling noise is the flap/spring assembly in the EGR cooler. Luckily for me, the flap hasn't broken off, so the turbo hasn't been damaged yet.
Marty, do you have any tips on getting the cooler off, or removing the flap? I've taken off the EGR valve, but am really struggling to get to the pipe clamp on the cooler that is hidden under the nearside of the intake manifold. I ended up taking most of the front of the van off to improve access, but still can't reach that jubilee clip.
All I want to do is stop the rattling and prevent the flap from ending up in the turbo. Blanking off the EGR valve to stop airflow would probably help, but what to do about the flap?
You need to get it off and get that flap out sorry, I have never took a cooler off sorry
Hi Marty, I drive a 2020 movano and it check injection and check anti pollution are both on would this be the same issue?
Does the turbo pipe suck flat when reved?
@@Martysworkshop no I checked not long after messaging 😂 the van has only 34k on the clock it's a good job i don't own it the vans are scrap, I drive for the health service and we have at least 10 of them in our area and most have issues with them 🙄
Yea the cheak injection can be anything to do with engine so lots of things can cause it, it needs to be plugged in I'm afraid
My 2015 movano has come up with p0402 regarding egr it pulls fine through all gears just very poor in first on set off seems to be boosting ok a specialist is looking at it Thursday but 2k repairs if its this issue mine also has injection light on and the eml was regarding the above code hopefully it's not the worse case scenario
Thank you for your input! I think you will find it should cost a lot less than that, thank you
@@Martysworkshop I'm hoping its the egr valve only and I'll get it deleted and mapped out lol those are the devil lol
Yea i agree they are not worth the hastle
Thanks for the info. Do you need to change the EGR cooler as well or is it not essential? I have the same issue. Not took Turbo off yet but pipe collapsing the same and loss of power. Been told Turbo jammed. Been told to check oil feeder pipe to the turbo for blockage. As this can dry out the turbo and cause seized problem.
I haven't yet seen any oil issues with this engine if I'm honest but the engine runs fine without the flap, i look after a fleet of these van and that all are running without it. Thank you for watching
@@Martysworkshop thank you for reply. Your a great help. Will let you know how I get on. 👍
@@Martysworkshop I owe you a drink mate
Thank you for watching and I'm glad my video could help
@@Martysworkshop a new recon turbo was fitted £450. It’s run lovely since then. About 3 years ago. Thanks again for the info. Much appreciated 👍
From your experience what is the best euro 6 Van nowadays out there?
Not a clue sorry I own a 2.2 transit witch has been good to me but I know the newer 2.0 can be a nightmare. As for renault masters we maintain a fleet of 13 plate vans and only seem to do generally repairs.
@@Martysworkshop thank you Marty . 2013 is euro 5. I have euro 5 puma 2.2 engine in my boxer and it’s fab. 174k no issue ,but ulez will come unfortunately.
Hi, thanks for the video, when checking the pipe it sucks in a little but not flat like you showed, would it still be the same thing. I have been having trouble for ages with injection fault on dash and a P0299 turbo underboost fault code but only recently a loss of power and it wont rev above 2800
The pipe should expand when you rev it so if it sucks in at all you have a problem, thank you for watching
So it would best to start with the turbo and not any sensors. Real pain it's on the back of the engine. Thanks again for the video and your reply
Hi Marty, great video, I have had this problem with my 2014 master. Loss of power, engine light and check injection message. Pipe is flattening when revved. I have managed to split turbo in situ, the impeller on hot side is damaged but there is no sign of any debris ? I am concerned that if I put new turbo on that whatever caused the damage might get back into new turbo. Where will this debris have gone ? Exhaust or Cat I presume ? And if so, can it do more damage if I dont find it and remove ? Also, is a viable option to just replace the turbo cartridge rather than the complete turbo assembly ? Thanks. Rich.
Hello Richard, we always replace the complete turbo, but I have replaced the caset before in older vehicles, just make sure you get a good make, as for the flap if it has gone through the impeller then I would say it may be quite finely broken up but definitely cheak the dpf for any bits,
@@Martysworkshop Hi Marty, you were spot on with this video. When I checked the dpf I found the remainder of the flap in the housing leading to the dpf. Van is running fine now but one small question for you. When I test drove van, everything was fine but heater was blowing cold and temp gauge stayed at cold for about 2miles, then quickly rose to normal and heater went warm. I'm guessing this was indicating an air lock in coolant system ? at the same time, I got the check injection message and spanner on dash ? I got home, switched off engine. Started engine again and message and spanner have gone. Is this something I need to investigate or some rogue message connected to the temperature gauge issue I had ? Van seems to be running fine. Thanks for your help and keep up the great work. Rich.
These vans are common for throwing a fault code if air gets into the ear coolant pump so I would say it would probably be that, the air will come back to the bottle during driveing so shuld be fine
I have a Opel Vivaro 2012 and my car have the same symptoms. How expensive is it to get this problem fixed?
It depends on If the flap has jammed the turbo before it can cause damage then it is just a matter of removing the turbo to remove the flap, but if it has bounced around in there for a while before it jammed it then unfortunately you will have to replace the turbo!! As for the metal flap we just leave them missing and it doesn't really effect it to be honest, but if you wanted it back 100% then you would have to replace the egr cooler too, hope this helps
Hi. General enquiry really if you don’t mind. My turbo destroyed itself so I’ve had it replaced by a reputable garage. But even before the turbo went and since, I’ve been getting the turbo under boost error. Engine has been cleaned. Could it be a pipe issue? Injector maybe. I’m really stuck with figuring this one out. Thanks in advance.
No when this goes it jams the turbo sold, so you would notice the lack of performance. I'm not sure sorry I would definitely pressure test from the turbo to the intake first but you would need a kit to do that.
@@Martysworkshop ok. Thanks for the reply. I’ll do the pressure test. Maybe the smoke test too.
Yea smoke test is the one tbh we just got one here and if there is a leak it shows you where it is
Hi mate, if pipe collapsing, does that defo mean it the turbo? I’ve got the check injection and check emissions warnings and van in limo mode. Mechanic thinks it’s an electrical fault? But I’ve checked and the pipe defo sucks in.
If pipe sucks flat then turbo is stuck I'm afraid, nothing eletrical will cause your boost pipe to suck flat.
@@Martysworkshop thought that, cheers for the info👍
Hi Martin this happened my Mercedes’ citan (kangoo engine) check injection won’t stay off though
Is she turbo pipe sucking flat when reved?
@@Martysworkshop hi Marty, I’ve already got the turbo replaced. But everytime I get the mechanic to turn off the spanner light it comes back on saying check injection
What is the fault code does he delete to knock the light off?
My Renault master has the check injection fault Stop light on. Has loss of power on hills and on motorway in top gears 5/6 it seems to come on when accelerating. One guy said it could be the dpf being blocked but I’m
Leaning towards it being something else. As it’s not consistent in when the power loss goes. Any help be appreciated
You need to get it plugged in I'm afraid that will point you towards the fault
Hi Marty, following on from an earlier message I had loss of power and P0299 code, I paid and had someone check the turbo to which they said the turbo was at fault, I couldn't get anyone reasonable enough to change it so I spent the day changing the turbo myself on axle stands! When I did my test drive after I still got the check ignition and code P0299 with loss of power, I am exhausted and deflated. Have you any ideas what else it could be? Also what is the sensor called that goes into the Turbo?
Hello steven thats sounds like a bad day in my book do I'm happy to help, so when you rev the engine does the pipe still suck in? Also did you replace the whole turbo or just the cartridge? Do you mean the flap that causes this fault?
@@Martysworkshop Thanks for the reply, the turbo hose no longer sucks in, yes changed the whole turbo but i have not taken it apart to see if there is damage. I didn't notice before but the code now reads P0299 $07e8pd and $07e8 although its a cheap reader
and yes a really bad day, i ache so much
So does your reader clear the faults and knock the light off?
@@Martysworkshop Yes I stopped and cleared the fault 3 times still came back, it does have slightly more power but not much
Hey mate
Okay here is your garage located please?
Im based in monmoshire south wales but I don't do outside work sorry, I work for a large company maintaining a fleet.
Hi mate will the other side still spin mine do
In the worst case it can snap the shaft so if the turbo pipe is sucking flat the you need to remove exhaust and cheak that side
@@Martysworkshop I got a vauxhall vivaro no power to pull off looked at air side seems fine on play no oil spins ok got check injection on my computer any idea mate
Does it pick up above 2000rpm??
@Martysworkshop no mate can't pull of at all engine sounds OK when I rev it no smoke coming out of exhaust had check emissions light on but gone off I was told its timing chain then turbo but I don't think it's any of that they just want to make money mate could it possibly be map sensor mate
I was thinking more like egr valve stuck open, you need it plugged in, the cheak emissions could be caused my anything on the engine or exhaust
Hi,check injection message comes and goes along with p0048.Idle speed or rev don't make a difference.Any of you had this code?
The fault code relates to turbo boost control hope this helps
When the flap rattles does it sound like it's near the timing chain
I have never noticed one loose before it jams the turbo so not sure sorry
Hia there, do you have a video of how to fix this problem before the flap comes off and kills the turbo??? Also what year nv400 have this problem. Thanks loads 👍
This engine is in the vans from 2010 until the add blue engine, im not sure how you would do this as the flap is in the egr cooler, only way to prevent would be to replace it. Thank you for you question.
@@Martysworkshop is there a pipe thats In between the egr cooler and the turbo? If so maybe you could put a wire mesh in somehow to stop the flap going into the turbo
Possibly, there is a pipe but might be a task to get too
Just put a blanking plate in I did and it saved my turbo
evening,i have a master 2014,the last few days i can feel a slight surge when driving and the engine temp is up only slightly,if i put my foot down there is plenty of power,the check injection light has come on once but not since but i can still feel the slight surge?,I,m lead to believe its possible the egr cooler any ideas? regards
I would lean more to the egr valve if you have a surge. But the flap that brakes off in the cooler might be giving you issues
@@Martysworkshop I thought of the cooler with the slight increase in temp. Is it worth cleaning or replacing the valve? 👍
I allways replace but there is cleaners on the market that other people swear by so depends on how difficult it is to remove
Just started my van and got the injection failure light on I've watched this video and the pipe isn't going flat or expanding
Has you van lost power?
Thanks
I'm glad it helped.
Do you know if this is also a common fault in a Renault trafic? I’ve got the injection fault showing and code P0299 however the van drives no different
If this happens you would lose power. Hope this helps
@@Martysworkshop Ah cheers for the reply, I have had the fault cleared and as of yet it's not returned, hopefully it was just something the ECU didn't like and everything back to normal now
I have a trafic parked up after turbo leaked and began feeding oil into the engine....... frightening experience as engine revved up to the max and brought the motorway I was on to a near halt with plumes of smoke......I immediately stuck it into 5th and stalled it after about 15 seconds. I'm replacing turbo tomorrow and hoping engine isn't too badly damaged
If the stop sign appears while is it okay to still driving?
I wouldn't take a chance, as you could do damage to the engine.
If my van is remapped along with egr off , still prone to this fault ?
Yes this flap can still fall off and jam turbo even if egr is blanked or deleted
@@Martysworkshop thanks.
@@Martysworkshop in order to be safe , better to remove the egr cooler ?
I've currently got emissions warning message. Runs fine. Any ideas
Most common cause of this fault is the dpf differential pressure pipe splits, its a rubber hose that goes from the sensor on the chassis to the exhaust, check that if not you will need to plug it in. Thank you for supporting the channel
Where are you based Marty?
Hello and thank you for watching. I'm based in South wales, why do you ask?
@@Martysworkshop do you work on other peoples vans? As I have a recovery truck with the same problem.
I don't do outside work sorry, but it is not a difficult job, any garage shuld be able to sort it easily.
@@Martysworkshop no problem, thank you for the video though has pointed me and sure alot more other people into the right direction.
@martysworkshop can I please have your workshops address? I’d like to bring my van to you please. Thanks.
Kevin.
Had this happen to me first indicator slight loss of power..then bang straight into the turbo
It does seem to me a common fault, thank you for your input
What if, the check injection code comes on whilst driving, power is lost somewhat, but turning off and on again removes the fault code... only happened twice so far, but I'd presume if it was the turbo, this would be a consistent fault, not one that disappears by turning off and on?
No you are spot on with what you say once the turbo jams it has a constant loss of power, i would get it plugged in and diagnosed as there will be a fault code present ant it will tell you why it is loosing power / going into limp, thank you for watching
5 error codes including turbo boost and air intake, so cleared the codes and waiting for them to pop up again (hopefully just one or two errors), to diagnose correctly
@@sharileone sounds good thats what i would do to pinpoint it.
@sharileone what was the issue here with your van coz I am having same problem now?
Anyone know who can do this job aroound Hertfordshire?
Not sure clue sorry
Hello Marty!
I recorder that video to ask you if you can advice me: ua-cam.com/video/mp8e981YHtk/v-deo.html
Renault Master 2013 2.3 125, 250 000km of mileage.
The pipe is not collapsing when I rev the engine up. But it has a big turbo lag , and from my observation and based on my measurements via bluetooth interface - it seems it has a problem with transitioning from "no turbo" conditions (like going downhill or with a wind from the back) to the acceleration mode -> it waits for 2-3 seconds and then it accelerate/jerks "rapidly" (if renault master can accelerate rapidly ;-))
I put some informatino and screens on my video. My mechanic (two of them already...) replaces bunch of parts/ or swapped others:
parts replaced:
- air flow meter
- exhaust temperature sensor
parts swapped for the test (didn't help):
- vacuum pump
- egr valve
- TURBO BOOST PRESSURE SOLENOID
- boost pressure sensor
but nothing has helped so far. Could you give me some hints where to look? Thank you :-)
You have swapped everything I would try I'm afraid
@@Martysworkshop ok, will be stil fightingz but anyway, super good to know about the issue you describe, thanks!
