    Air blower noise when accelerating

    Thanks for the response! I checked at the weekend and can confirm it was the air pipe from the turbo to the inter-cooler not situated correctly. I'm guessing it was making sound like the blower motor as the pipe is situated deep down in the engine bay and right next to the firewall. I've...

    Air blower noise when accelerating

    Thanks for this, and I think you are correct. When I have the window down I can hear the air noise much greater and seems to indicate it is one of the air pipes that I removed when replacing the water pump. I will get back under the hood this weekend and check it over!

    Camshaft phasers

    Just trued a couple of tests which were recommended before changing the phasers, disconnect the alternator and disconnect the VCT solenoid. When the alternator is disconnected the check engine light goes out and stays out, it appears that the error codes are linked to diodes in the alternator too...

    Camshaft phasers

    The check engine light is on, on my 2008 Expedition due to P345 & P349 codes (cam position sensor bank 2) I have changed the sensor, but the light is still on (will stay off during the first start up after clearing the errors and can be run for any distance without the light on but will...
