Fiat Panda 1.3 multijet 2005 - EGR flow code P0401 #

Posted by Alan Kane on April 20, 2012, 6:44 am

Year of Manufacture *: 2005
Engine Size and Code *: 1.3
( Optional) Fault Codes: P0401

Hi,
This Panda sets P0401, insufficient EGR flow. This happens about once a week. The intake is spotless, there are no boost leaks, it drives perfect and has what looks like a new EGR valve already fitted. MAF figures look perfect. The customer has only bought it so no known repair history.

I am thinking possibly a cheap poor quality EGR valve was fitted or maybe there is a software update. Anyone have any experience of these?

Thanks

Alan

Hi Piotr,

Carman to read the code. I didn't see any reason to try another tool as it seemed to work well. Now that you have put the idea in my mind I will try another tool when I see it again.

No DPF fitted.

cheers

Alan
