well the old 180 lwb 4 cylinder has carted me and loads of Rayburn cookers for the past 9 yaers,covering 260 thou miles.Unlike others I am on original clutch,exhaust ,drive shafts and dead pleased with it BUT recently its going into limp mode -usually after 5-8 miles from cold,when I slow down for a junction etc. Switching off /on restores it but the glow plug and engine management light come on- and its a bit of a pain.
i appreciate at 260K its getting a bit tired and expect to spend a bit on it-no point in getting a newer one as it does everthing I want. So any suggestions welcomed
Any advise appreciated -or turbo expert recommendations ( located North Shropshire) |

Thanks Greg,
My local chaps used one of those and changed what it said was wrong- but it still persists!

If you tell us what the error codes are someone on here may have some suggestions (it may have happened to them and they know what fixed their T5)
