Hey guys,
I am having a bit of a funny issue with my jazz. I’ve been searching around a bit but can’t seem to find people describing the same mix of issues/fault codes. I’ve seen threads of the same problem but with different fault codes and different MY.
So it’s a 2002 1.3 manual.
Start it up in the morning, runs fine. After about 15 mins or so of driving, I (most of the time but not always) feel a little splutter and the engine light comes on, lose all power in all gears and it splutters when trying to accelerate. (Feels like an old carby car starving for fuel)
If I switch the car off and back on again (even while I’m moving lol) the problem and engine light is gone for maybe 5 minutes and then it comes back, this keeps repeating once it has started, until cooled down.
Have checked fault codes, only code I’m getting is - P0171 B1S1 lean code. Have tried replacing the sensor, no good. Have checked fuel pressure before and after then engine was running bad. Same result, around 35-40psi.
I know egr valves are an issue with these cars but the symptoms don’t seem to line up with egr issues.
Anyone else come across this problem accompanied by this code?
