Hi all,
I haven't used my 300 CRD (2007 -123k miles) much over the last few months. Took it for a spin at the weekend and all was fine until I got a shuddering/kangarooing effect and the car went into limp mode with the red lightning bolt light on the dash.
Managed to get home on limp mode, plugged in my scanner and got codes P0131 and P0404. Today the car won't start at all, it just about fires up, sounds very lumpy, then dies after a few seconds, however, no codes are now stored on the ECU.
My research for code P0404 suggests the EGR valve may be the problem. Has anyone experienced the same issues? Ideally I would take it to a garage to check for codes but as the car will not start I am a bit stuck!
Any suggestions appreciated.
