Hi not sure if this is in correct forum but anyhow:
i have a 2012 Hyundai i30 Turbo diesel. I bought the vehicle and a short time later had to replace turbo: not happy!
I had turbo replaced under warranty (lucky!)and i put it down to air filter not being changed causing a vacuum to be created and then sucked oil past turbo seals. The vehicle runs rough low down but goes great at speed generally with rpm above 1700 rpm. The dealer now says its contaminated fuel which its not! ( have cleaned tank replaced filter etc.
I do know quite a bit about cars so i then took the job on.
I have cleaned egr valve, maf sensor and manifold pressure (also swapped these with another good known car). If i disconnect the electrical connector on the egr valve the car runs very smooth but down on power but is drive able. I feel it goes into limp mode.
The oxygen sensor sensor is the only part i cant change over(other car uses different part number)
.
Can the o2 sensor be cleaned? . I don't want to spend big bucks on a new sensor to only find it didn't fix it
. As the turbo seals failed large amounts of engine oil entered to inlet manifold and massive clouds of smoke came out the exhaust ( i was lucky i got to stop the engine run-on before it got to destroy itself)
Any help?
