Year of Manufacture *: 2009 Engine Size and Code *: 2000cc diesel ( Optional ) Scanner Used: Launch ( Optional) Fault Codes: P1233
Hi I have this kyron in at moment with a intermittent power loss problem. The customer commonly tows a trailer and says this is when it happens most.
It had Vgt code previous and map sensor codes along with this. I did replace map sensor and it stopped the problem for about a month.
Yesterday my boss took it out, it had a clear memory when He took it out. When he came back he said under power he got a rattle like noise from the engine and it went into limp. He drove it in the workshop and revved it and you could hear a load worrying rattle from around the chain area.
I plugged in the launch and found p1234 to be the only code. This appears to be a manufacturer specific code can anyone give me the ssangyong definition please.?
Do they have probs with pumps? Chains?
Thanks in advance Brad

Speaking to the dealers about it it sounds a dead cert the chain tensioner is failing. New chain kit ordered. Will probably be about the usual 6weeks delivery.
