elias 253 Report post Posted August 9, 2023 would need to read codes, but could be DME mosfets if its MSD80. Fairly common issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murph4 1 Report post Posted August 9, 2023 yeah the more i look into it the more it looks like thats the issue, whats the best way to fix it? just replace it or... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elias 253 Report post Posted August 9, 2023 can get the mosfets replaced which is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire DME. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

promo 93 Report post Posted August 9, 2023 Ah the old MSD80. once its got a tune on it the MOSFETS run at a higher voltage. Courier the ECU to me and I'll replace all MOSFETS with higher voltage ones so it doesnt happen in the future. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murph4 1 Report post Posted October 16, 2023 Hey guys, looks like the issues I was having was caused by the MOSFETS so I had them replaced with higher voltage ones thanks again for the advice, however when it was getting it diagnosed the garage I took it to swapped around injector #6 with #1 to rule out the injectors (which it did) however when they refitted the injector brackets they fitted the one that holds injectors 1-2 and 5-6 upside down so they weren't secure. as a result it has caused #5 injector to bounce around snapping the bracket holding injectors 5-6 and also snapped the metal fuel feed tube to #5 injector. I've managed to get another fuel feed tube however I'm struggling to find a injector bracket. would anyone on here have one I could buy?
