PD170 Stuttering Problem Solved
- Thread starter AndrewJB
- Start date
just thought I would put up my experience. Ive had one on my PD140 for almost a year now, it sorted my "constant rev stutter" that I had exeperienced on occasion. noticed the car is a little smoother also, possibly a smidge better on fuel also.
prob the cheapest mod you can do!

I'd be very interested in trying this, mine is a pain in the ar$e in 1st and 2nd goes then judder/drop in the revs then goes goes again, more of a hesistant if this is right? The studder i used to experience in 5th/6th was mainly on the motorway and just cruising, if you went to put your footdown it would quickly judder about 4/5 times then go, but to be honest ive not had this happen for some time now.
Cheers Andrew, Ill give it a try.
Going off subject, but the uprated clutch made a difference, bit more of a bite when I change gears now and no more slipping off the mark.

Ive ordered the gasket so ill give it ago.
Yes went for the sachs one, i stayed with the dmf though. Got a new one on it as well, as im nearly hitting 52k and thought well i may as well swap it as well. Its a fair bit stiffer than the oem and took a good 2k to bed it in but its going well... I can imagine thats got some bite to it, im sure it will prob take more touque than mine as well, but I dont think ill be trying to push any more power through it, considering a full system when mine starts to die, but just some of the miltek comments are putting me off with them blowing.?

Hi there had same problem with my 170 FR. Car was going into limp mode, Taken EGR off and cleaned it. You would not believe the muck inside, why they put these EGR valves on i dont know, Dirty exhaust gases running back through the engine as got to be bad. Anyway could not believe the difference afterwards.
I was thinking of changing mine but im worried about the dpf.
I have a shark stage 1 remap aswell Do you think this could cause extra issues with dpf.
Cheers
