dpf was blocked..100mbars on my device...removed it ,stuck it in oven and now reading 3mbars, so is as clear as it is going to be..BUT ignition on dash still flashing ,engine will not rev past 2,000 and chucks out lots of unburnt fuel with the dpf light still flashing...does the ecu memorize the fault, and if so does it need to be cleared first ? what else might be wrong? anyone??

I have put a low mileage 2016 lump in my 2010 Legacy ,had to change and mod a few things 1 fuel rail mod as new lump had a sensor on end for pressure reading .so now has old style monitoring. 2 injector loom plugs 3 had to fit original turbo as particulate filter wouldn't match new turbo. never ran really well ,but was useable ..until cold weather set in ..none of the glow plugs were working. Engine out again as glow plugs snapped off in the heads...so heads off and punched the plug tips back through . Motor back in ,starts easily but will not rev past 2,000 and if it does get past it will falter as if starved of fuel ,missfire and smoke heavily. The injectors were sent to a specialist , checked and given the all clear. Fuel pressure monitor readings are all ok . Any ideas..? what have I done wrong, what am I missing? code reader says 1469 which is a DPF fault ...this did give the occasional dash light before ,but would clear with a run.

Does anyone know if the diesel Legacy has an electric lift fuel pump...if so where is it?

the engine will not rev past 2000 ..if it does go higher it will almost die and will take a few seconds to stabilise ..fuel starvation ? Any thoughts ??

60 plated Legacy diesel..does the saddle pump supply any pressure to fuel line? Fault code P2635 pump A low performance .. hopefully someone will answer this for me.

found the correct head torques....nothing like the suggestions from videos.

after my glow plugs fell apart, had to lift off heads,.but what is the final torque figure?Don't mean the pre stretch . So far I have done the middle two to 25ftlbs and the other four to 11ftlbs all plus 90 + 90. but they seem really loose compared to the hernia inducing strip down.

Does anyone on this site have a read out of what the injection pump spec is ? If they have access to the pressures over the rev range ,it would be great. Engine is coming out at the moment and I want to ensure everything is spot on. Euro 6 spec pump and engine , euro spec 5 bay and ancillaries. Thanks in anticipation.

Does anyone read these?

Would anyone have a note of the fuel pressure expected on my diesel Legacy. I have recorded the pressures with my machine (Foxwell), the pressure is registered in psi ,but I assume factory spec is in Bars. The engine was a Euro 6 ,but uses a Euro 5 turbo and dpf. Also what triggers the fuel injection into the dpf? The engine is coming out soon and I want to check every issue to stop from duplicating any work. .

I am in need of a turbo for my 2010 Legacy,it doesn't have to be a good one, I just need the metal casting, not the alloy body. This weekend I put the laws of gravity to test resulting in a cracked casting. So if anyone has a worn out unit and is willing to sell what would ordinarily be scrap ,I will be thankful.

Re the Euro 6 turbo...would be willing to swap for a Euro 5 turbo as long as the casing is useable?

I have a 33,000 mile turbo which came from an automatic Forester, which had a bad rear ender. It is complete with the added cooler ,but you could remove it if needed. The engine is fitted in my Legacy using the original turbo, so it's being sold to recoup some of the costs. Looking for around £260 plus probably £10 postage .

unfortunately euro 5 injectors are completely different to euro 6.. ..............5's are hidden under the cam box , 6's are not.

After lots of hassle managed to get a very low mileage Euro 6 motor for my diesel Legacy. All the local indie garages can't reprogramme my ecu to accept the new injector codes...is it main dealer only , and would they even attempt to? At this moment it is a very bad starting smokey motor,which when hot runs lovely and fairly clean.With the engine and a brand new clutch and dual mass I have probably spent the actual value of the car on parts, but I do like the car.
