Hi all, New to this site and a new owner of a dec/06 NS Pajero DI-D. We've had this car for about 2.5 weeks now and has been great. It has 190k on the clock, its a 5 speed manual.
Yesterday afternoon we got in it to go out to dinner. Started it up and the engine light stayed on, so I turned it off, checked fluids and fuses etc, started it again and same engine light stayed on. We started to take off and the ACS/ASC (what ever it is) came on and also the traction control light came on at the same time, also noticed a massive loss of power too like its in limp mode.
've read a few of your topics on here and has been a great help about the EGR valve. I found that and pulled that off as it get blocked up with soot from what im reading, cleaned that up with contact cleaner sprey (alcohol based sprey) with an old toothbrush till its like new. But it all back together and still the same lights come on. My mate (who works at Mitsubishi) said the problem may be fixed but the light will stay on untill you delete the error code. But I sent him a pic of how black the egr valve was and he said it wasn't too bad so im thinking it hasn't fixed the problem.
Buying a scanning tool today so I can read the code via the obd2 plug. But untill then has anyone had this same poblem and know what it could be? We are ment to be heading up to Hervey Bay tonight lol.
Many thanks in advance. Nathan.
