I would like to thank Carole and Peter both for there comments they have saved me £1000. I was told I needed 2 new egr valves and a dpf clean which I could not afford at this moment so I picked my car up put it in sports mode and raced it for a good few miles to Halfords to get some Wynns Egr Valve cleaner.

Once I returned home I opened the air box and emptied the can in short bursts then took it for another run and what a difference it made. Yesterday I filled up with V Power diesel and took her for a 20 mile drive to Telford and back never missed a beat and no restricted performance. Thank you both so much.

Hi cubist 

Thanks for your in-depth reply I have been on to a garage today to have a full dpf clean at a price of £250 plus vat. 

I don't mind getting my hand dirty at all just need guidance. Hopefully the dpf clean will sort it out.

I was hoping Old Pete could point me in the right direction for keeping her clean. 

Thanks again for your knowledge.

Hi everyone 

On my way to work on Friday I received the reduced performance with amber and red lights. I called the RAC they ran a diagnostic and gave me 2 codes I have attached the RAC email. I really hope someone can help.

Thanks

Thank for the reply's I'm sure I will be picking your brains sooner or later. 

Thanks Old Pete & Raistlin, do you have to live in the West Midlands to be an owner?

Where can I find the spec of my car ?

Many thanks

Hi everyone I'm picking my S-Type up some time this week (just waiting for new reg. to arrive) can't wait.
