    This is a vauxhall tsb. Models: Engines: Option:
    Vivaro 2001...2007 F9Q-762-1.9 DI| F9Q-760-1.9 DTI All
    Complaint: Loss of throttle response. Engine starts and idles OK but will not rev up for up for 10-15 seconds.
    Cause: Associated to either known ECU s/w calibration concern or faulty single fuel injector.
    Production: New ECU introduced on production with revised level software from F9Q760 (released October 2005) and F9Q762 (released April 2005). This s/w is the same level as available to Aftersales from TIS CD65 V14.500 when carrying out an SPS program.

    Remedy:
    In case of customer complaint re-flash engine ECU with TIS CD65 V.14.500 or
    later. Revised s/w is available for both F9Q760/762 engines from SOP to
    MY2005 inclusive.
    If the vehicle already has the later s/w or after programming the fault
    remains 1 fuel injector is likely to be the remaining problem. Follow the
    guidelines shown below for diagnosis.
    Replacement of all the diesel fuel injectors which was considered the
    previous fix for this complaint is no longer necessary since the
    introduction of special service tool EN-47655 which allows individual
    injector faults to be identified.
    1. Check for conformity (quality) of the diesel fuel. Ensure only diesel
    meeting BS EN590 or European equivalent grade is used.
    2. Check for the fitment of additional electrical or engine driven equipment
    because of their potential energy consumption (slow cranking) during start.
    3. Confirm that the engine parameters rpm, flow of fuel, rail pressure,
    status of the synchronization, accelerator pedal signal and air flow are all
    within manufacturing specification when the engine coolant temperature is
    90°C (with the EGR valve at 5%).
    4. Check the fuel injector compensation values (return flow). Refer to TIS
    Service Instruction 01401850 using service tool EN-47655. The visual fuel
    return should be observed over 3 test cycles with the engine on idle and
    coolant temperature > 50°C. A similar test should also be performed at
    1500 rpm for comparison. Any deviation in measured return flow values
    compared to the other injectors may indicate a fault. Always replace only the
    injector with the furthermost deviation from the nominal value.
    Note: Due to the fact that there is no capacity to check for flow adjustment
    values with our diagnostic tool, it is important to pay particular attention
    to the return flow values as this is our only available measure (see above).
    5. Check that the fuel pressure is held 3 minutes after the engine is stopped.
    Switch on the ignition and read the pressure at the rail. A stuck injector
    needle would see a quicker drop in pressure than that normally observed.
    CAUTION: Observe all normal safety requirements when dealing with common rail
    injection equipment. The EN-47655 can only be used on F and G series engines.
    New M9R engines are not compatible with this tool due to the increase in return
    flow pressure.
