Thread: Pressure Control valve replacement- 2.4

I was talking about this valve with someone not that long ago.
At the end of the discusion we came away with a couple of unanswered questions.

Do you have to do the pump/injector learn or is it only recommended?
Is it true there is limited learn features in the ECU?
Has there been any issues on the 2•2 motors?
(I see mostly 2•4 motors are mentioned)

I'm wondering if this thing in whatever name it goes by is the cause of my problems. 2010 2.4 110 with 147K on the clock.
Problem mostly shows it self on the first run in the morning particularly when it's cold....lift the foot on approaching a junction to turn left and I get this surging which can be quite pronounced at times and makes driving most uncomfortable.
I try juggling brake with throttle etc to pour on a bit of juice which helps and then it goes away as soon as more throttle is applied after rounding the corner.
Does it a bit less when the vehicle is warm.
Does it sound like this could be the problem?
Cheers.

I have similar surging, but mainly when it is cold and slowly accelerating. Some times i would argue the engine nearly cuts out. I am keen to know the part number, cost and what is involved to change it out i.e. is it a home garage job?

I'd suggest checking out the Transit forums if you want to explore the full gamut of potential symptoms - hunting at idle when cold and throttle responder issues are typical.

From memory the part number is LR009837, but there seems to be a few incorrect descriptions on resellers web sites (something like fuel vapour valve) they're are $200 after market ($650 genuine from memory). They're a Transit part so plenty of options available to you.

Easy back yard change out (for the part) but you need to be able to do a fuel pump calibration/learn. A good Indy could do this for you, or a dealer (best of luck with that) or you could buy a Faultmate (~$1000) and do it yourself (and have a useful piece of diagnostic gear going forward).

I bought the valve from ebay for $160, there are several sellers with parts that appear to be packaged for Thai domestic market only, Denso make them in Thailand it seems. I assume they have been exported on the sly. Pretty sure it is the exact same part from the exact same factory as if you bought from LR for triple the price. Search for transit valve or similar and several will come up.
There is a diesel injection specialist near me who has been around a long time and is a dealer for denso amongst others. Charged me $220 to do a system diagnostic test, fit the valve that I supplied and then do the pump learn.
Pretty sure you could fit the valve yourself, absolute cleanliness would be required.

Hi Pod. I've been looking at these on Ebay with a Denso part no. 294200-0360
Can you confirm this is correct type for a 2.4?
Cheers.

Yep that's what I bought.
