- Boost Vacuum Solenoid, P003A 91 Trouble Code, Ford Mondeo Mk4 2L Diesel.
ford mondeo mk4 displaying service engine now on the instrument pack and vehicle in reduced power mode (limp home mode).
after some checks it turned out to be a weak turbo boost vacuum solenoid. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Pop the black plastic cap off that solenoid, under it you'll find a cylinder shaped small foam air filter, check it for dirt, when that filter gets clogged, the vacuum generating ability of the solenoid becomes hampered
Thank you, these video's are worth a lot to us Ford/Mondeo owners!!!
cheers

I’m really looking forward for your help man, as I need to know, at least what part should be changed/veriffied first of all?
Thank a lot!
Thankyou so much for these!!! Honestly saved me $4000-$5000 easy
@@floriannicolae3880 I currently have the same problem. Have you solved it? If so, could you please tell me? I would be very grateful. Best regards
I had a similar issue on a Mondeo, I looped the two ends got the actuator rod moving, so I knew where the problem was then, and thanks to Monica in the office, made my night.
They love to split hoses and pipes these cars, suprised it wasn't the pipe when you mentioned it lol. Cracking vid as always 👌
Just bought one of these cars, you're you're godsend it happened when I got home and got worried as literally bought today. Thank you!!
I have a Mondeo MK4 140 HP from 2011 with around 95000 km . I changed the vacuum around 73000 km in 2018. I had the same exact errors and the dealer wanted to change my turbo said that it's worn off. Good thing that I've googled that through some UK websites which they had the same issue and the fix cost me around 80 euros. This car relaxes me so much that it makes me to keep it forever.
Another excellent video Alan, I have changed this valve on my car, not for the reason you had, but when I switched the car off, as I walked away I’d get a farting noise from this valve. 🤷🏻♂️
Changed the valve, it’s been fine since, just the “pulsing “ it does during shutdown
Keep up the good work mate, some excellent footage of the lovely Monica
Great video Alan, great tips , like you say many will run and get a new turbo , get a vacuum gauge kit off flea bay , less than 20 quid for testing
You must have saved your viewers thousands mate, Funny and factual luv it.
Make me smile And made me love Mondeo...
Hi Alan...did have a MK4 mondeo...now have a Insignia, had the same thing wrong with that...the exact same as the Ford...even to the "service vehicle soon " a turbo boost valve later £25 0ff Ebay and fixed it....keep up the good work.
Great information but the trousers Monika was wearing literally had me distracted throughout the whole video 😅
lol🤣
Never seen Monika over exposed lol :)
Changed the Boost vaccum solenoid mentioned and the car was ok again. For a while, about 6 months.
Then the same kind of error occured. Took me along time to figure out why. I thought that the turbo vane was stuck.
The problem was that the other solenoid for EGR leaked so much that the the Boost vaccum solenoid did not functioned.
Solved the EGR solenoid temporarly with WD40 in the vaccum inlet and outlet. Probably a sealing inside the solenoids that dried out and leaked.
Very easy to check the solenoids valves for leaks with a large syringe to pull vacuum on the valve. Even whith the valve still in the car.
Thanks man, another great video. And my kuga flies again.
cheers george
Hi new friend from srilanka...i like you funny & technical videos...
I had a similar issue with those on a focus a friend to me to dismantle the solenoid as there is a filter inside I clean the filter and believe me it was ok afterward.
Yeap, you are right!Most likely sponge filter in this particular solenoid was clogged too!
hi just had this code come up p003a and oil service light at the same time both when away after I change the oil and filter so if you have a engine malfunction light come on and oil service at the same oil might of degraded .
Thanks for the information Alan.
But how about if there is no fault code/codes ?
My 2013 Kuga 163 hp 4x4 2.0 tdci having some issues. I replaced the solenoid after checked. It was leaking vacuum. It was ok after the replacement.But everything goes bad again. Plus diesel consumption is higher. Could you please advise anything about this issue?
Alan you are a star!
Just cleaned the filters, I didn't need to take off the cap for the filter is on top I have the 2012 tdci 2.0 focus. My engine fan comes on but doesn't over heat but my car doesn't boost until 2.5 - 3rpm any ideas guys. It feels gutless sometimes. Fan goes off and its boosts lovely.
Hi Alan , im not sure you'll see this comment im hoping you do , i bought a mondeo st tdci 07 plate 4 weeks ago with fsh and fantastic condition drove fantastic lots of power good mpg , i drove it back from coventry 200 miles no problems at all . 2 weeks ago i went to a very respected re-mapper local to me and had an economy map put on the ECU which took it to 185bhp and 10% roughly more mpg . It was running amazing averaging 51 mpg and the torque and power were brilliant. a week ago i was cruising on a dual cariage way and the car juddered as if it ran out of fuel and i had no power so i pulled into a layby lucky for me and the car was dead - no fuel at all to the injectors , i cracked them in the layby with my mate the pipes were dry !!
So i towed it home and did a diagnostic and it showed the fuel regulator so i changed this for a delphi matching numbers ( bought off a trusted seller on ebay ) as this is a common fault apparently . I changed the fuel filter for a delphi , not sure what old one was on it and primed it and it wouldn't start . Hmmmm ok i thought get the OBD out again...
So now i have high pressure fault on rail sensor and on the regulator i just changed..... and when i opened one of the injector fuel nuts under pressure like you did on that mk 5 mondeo fuel sprayed everywhere.
Atm i have dropped the car off to a diesel specialist who said they are a pain to start after something like this and you sometimes have to tow them , i have bled every fuel line to get any air out , car wont start....
I went back to the re-mapper and asked him would that map which he has used on 1000's of cars have caused this and he says no...
So i bought a new rail pressure sensor to be fitted and am waiting for the diesel specialist to call me tomorrow to tell me whats wrong...
Paranoid its my injectors but like you said it didn't run rough it just shut off no fuel....so the injectors must be good......now im thinking has the pump failed..no i have too much pressure.....so if he comes back to me tomorrow and says he cant start it im thinking it must be that ECU remap...
Sorry it's long winded and i hope u read it and give me your thoughts.....i'd be gutted if its knackered as i saved a while to get it one of the last 07 blue st tdci mondys and its immaculate too...
Tomorow is d day...fingers x
Regards Gavin
Foolow up i have no electrical signal to my injectors , i have spoken to the remapper and he guarantees it wont be the ECU , it's like an operating system on your phone it just doesnt stop working . so i hav ean auto electrician coming today to check the wiring and fuses and relays from ECU to injectors. Thankfully pump and injectors seem good.....will follow up...
Great video Alan !
thank you
Would you be able to dismantle the solenoid you replaced and lubricate it a little? I do this for instance with Volkswagen door lock motors and it is a very cheap fix.
Alanncould this cause a rough idle from idle to about 2k rpm? Just changed the leak off injector pipes and engine mounts (all ford genuine parts) and I have a rough idle. No codes on system. 166k miles on the clock.
i haven an d4204t that make wosh sound every time i throutle and deacclerate (kinda sound like a pop off valve) . Can this be signe of an airleak ? on the intercooler house to turbo ? so hard to see if it is cracked
How do i deal with code P0741 ( torque converter on the auto) on my mk4 mondeo? is a new gearbox needed? or can this be repaired at a reasonable price?
Is that the euro 5 engine? I have a 2013 euro 5 with the egr on the front. I am getting limp mode in a common situation. If I am up to speed on the road and slow down for a roundabout , go around and start getting up to speed, Bam, engine malfunction and limp mode. If I keep the power low and manually change gear at 2500 and take it east it can remain ok but still it can happen anyway.
Not many videos on the later mark 4 with the E5 engine. At least I now know how to get the EGR off and dig through to the starter alternator and glow plugs. I opened the throttol bodt and EGR and the gears and motors are all good in them.
Any advice on what vacuum I should expect from the vac pump? Breaks are good. I used to hear a ticking from something each time I shut the engine off, I assume thats the EGR exersizing its self.
Car is on 100K and id like to get another 100K out of it so I will invest in a new turbo at some point but id like to check the minor parts first.
I read 750 milibar on the MAP at sea level on a nice day without engine running so I replaced that. May do the air flow but I want to check what I should be looking at first.
Any pointers would be great thanks, Do Haynes to an engine manual yet, or one for the powershift gearbox?
Thanks
Great video Alan, do you recall what the Ford number is for the black solenoid controling the EGR valve? And what was the problem with the car before replacing it?
Can somebody tell me what is a proper level of vacum on output of this solenoid N75 on idle. I see I have 30 ( [Hg] something ) vacum of input and 15 on output. My geametry stops for a while in the middle on startup. Just wonder if this N75 works properly. Is there any way how to test it better. Alan Howatt great video thanks for sharing!
Hi Alan random question but what psi do the mk4 2.0 tdci boost to ?
Hi Alan, I’ve got a 2009 Ford kuga 2.0tdci it vibrates underload, the engine light and the skid light comes on, as has a slighly loud intake/whistle noise, had the turbo replaced a couple years ago, have you seen any similar issues
Hi Alan i'm sure you would love to do a video on this one, I keep getting a " Alarm system service required" notification on my dashboard.............. What............. do you have to service the Alarm system on a mk4 Mondeo??????????????????
The 2 brown vacuumvalves runs the turbo and the throttle plate. Not the egr. Just a heads up🙂
Hello Alan.
I have encountered some problems last time I was out with my caravan. Got a Mondeo 2007 2L diesel. When going upphil long and steep. Suddenly I lose power. After a short brake with the engine running I can go again. Can't reproduce the problem without the caravan. It's a heavy one 4000lbs or 1.8 metric tons. Do you have any idea what it can be?
How about a video about the battery, after a service at a Ford dealer I was told that my battery was .3 volts down, recently I have noticed a slight difference in the auto stop/start behavior on short runs. I understand that things such as the screen heat stop working as the battery gets older. Personally I wait until it it is a little sluggish to start in cold weather :)
strong shaking when starting and shutting down when the engine is hot. Could it be up to what you showed.?
Perfect video, as always....could you please list the part number for that solenoid? My 2009 mk4 has them both brown....so I'm confused. Thanx
I've just had mine act up. I was getting turbo lag, less power and more frequent regens. I cleaned that sponge filter inside unplugged and plugged it back, don't know if that did anything, and car runs perfectly fine after. What the heck...I'll probably change it still to be safe, but cleaning that filter seemed to have worked for now. Mine did not have any errors....yet.
Alan. I have this code P003A:85 but in newer engine T8MA 180HP, do you know where is this solenoid? I tried but I couldn't find it. I really appreciate your help.
Is this a simple on or off solenoid or dose it modulate the position over a range ?
What is the solenoid making any sort of noise when the car was at idle
Hey Alan I have a P006A and a P1103 error codes I have replaced the mass flow sensor and the T mass sensor but still getting these errors on a mk5 1.6tdci and ideas ?
hi alan i have ford mondeo mk5 1.5tdci i have problem some times car is very weak power and some day is good its drive for example 2 days ok and next day i start engine no power no engine light and vacuum soleniod behand the engine not moving so could be vacuum boost solenoid
My ford galaxy 2010 has two of them, they both look the same which one do I need to remove ??
I have a whistle when I accelerate could this be down to the vacuum boost solenoid??
Alan, phenomenal content as always. Always love when your vids come up in my sub feed.
Quick q not directly related to this... My mk4 Mondeo bonnet won't lock down. Is this an issue you've come accross before? The bonnet catch still has spring tension so I suspect the cable is still in tact, but it just won't latch down fully; just onto the safety catch. Any ideas greatly appreciated 👍🏻
A bit late but might help someone else in future - Try removing the black plastic engine cover from the top of the engine and try again. I had this problem for ages where the bonnet just wouldn't latch when closed, tried all sorts of things with the catch itself but in the end removing the engine cover solved the problem entirely, now it latches first time, every time.
Alan can help me with my ford mondeo mk5 2.0tdci problem error code p003A ?? What should I do
Had it going on mine. Not throwing a code yet, but at times it would just bog down in 1st and 2nd gear, or have turbo lag. And when it was doing a regen it was dead, very low on power. It felt like turbo issue, but no boost leaks. Then thought I just start with the easiest and cheapest part, that solenoid. And jackpot, car drove better than ever, it was probably on it's way out for a wile and I got used to it like that.
Wish I'd seen this earlier, I had a string of issues on an 08 MK4, all started from a stuck CC switch which had never been used in 7 years, I got the car and within 30 miles of using it, limp mode. Easy fix, but that left those codes and worse it was still dropping in to limp. Checked that solenoid and hoses for leaks, use a vacuum pump on the vain and replaced the vain position sensor on the top of the turbo, had the floor up, checking the wiring to everything, CAN BCM, PCM, IC, you name it.
Tested, or replaced just about everything, EXCEPT replacing that solenoid
Kind feel a bit of an idiot for not replacing it earlier now!
I have a 2013 focus mk3 tit x 2.0tdci 163 its got a huge turbo lag and seem sluggish in the bottom end worse when cold it has the egr blank plate in it mikeage is only 60k any ideas dude
This apply to a volvo v50 2.0 diesel?thanks.
Ahhh the friends and family jobs. I refuse to do them 😄
I have a Mondeo mk4 2.0 tdci. It turns over but won't start. Ive disconnected the fuel pipes which fee the high pressure fuel pump and no fuel comes out when i turn it over
Hi Alan. Mine shows no faults, last time I checked, but under prolonged hard acceleration in high gears it hesitates but only gently, like 100% power for 1/2 second , 90% power for 1/2, continually. Is it worth changing this just in case? Force a dpf regen perhaps? Any clues welcome.
Just mentioned this to someone else, I had the same problem, the car felt like it was surging under hard acceleration on and off power. Couldn’t find the fault. Then Friday the Particulate Filter Pressure Hoses one of them split and I’ve now replaced them, did a static regen and the engine pulls like it should do now .
Alan you need a mityvac about £60.
See a lot of solenoid is sure on psa group. Ps love you CZcams videos.
Hey Alan!
Got a real headache, got a p1719 fault code on my Ford S-max. Can you help me? :)
Speaking of solenoid how many people have had dpfs. Replaced because of the pressure solenoid or split pipes on no Mondeo s/max etc
Been there. I had one solenoid fail on my 1.6tdci Focus, 2008 engine. I had problem during DPF regenerations. When they started, car started to judder (solenoid was not responsive enough). A Ford garage wanted to sell me a new turbo and new DPF. Fortunately I got some help from Ford UK forum, where they steered me to this solenoid. But I agree, it was a pain to find the problem.
thanks for your story
How much did you pay for the new solenoid ?
@@Mr330d I bought it from Ford and it was around 200eur, but i saw them on ebay for around 80-100 eur. Easy to replace yourself.
@@13rz31 I’m having no boost myself not full limp mode but no boost or power no check engine light so thinking it could be this solenoid
@@Mr330d could be. I did not have limp mode and no engine light. Just no power during dpf regeneration and strange noises (every 150km). When engine off, engine on it was back to normal. It is common problem at above 150.000 km.
help !
just change it. had overboots issue- changed that valve- and NOW IM HAVING P003A PROBLEM. and asking to RELEARN IT ?? how can can I possibly do it ? my computer topdown artidiag 600 doesn't have that function . HELP !
Gracias Amigo.
Poo3a on smax runs sweet though bit low on boost any ideas
Hi Alan, great content as always! May I ask your two cents on what is the highest milage of the mk4 Mondeo with 2.0tdci you recommend to buy? Is there a specific milage when high pressure pump and injectors start failing?
Mine is on 175k and only tail pipe replaced and one ball joint.
Good morning Alan i hope you are fine
I have an issue with my 2010 ford c max 1.8 tdci (199250 Km) i was crusing in highway at 120 km/h around 1 hour and i decided to reduce speed (highway toll) when suddnly the car stall at third gear (reducing speed directly from 5 gear to the third one) with no warning no check engine light the car start after three attempts (long crancking) drives fine the probleme happened again but this time with no start (crusing at 140km/h and reducing speed to 40 (highway exit) ) after around 45 min (i was waiting for the towing truck ) the car start straightway (engine cooled down) drives fine until the engine get hot at that time the issue happens randomly .I just i want to add that i did a full service to the car 1200km ago (oil and oil filter , fuel filter, air filter, lower and upper belt, V belt, the water pump and the coolant). During this trip the colant temperature has never exceeded 88C.
if you have any clue related to my issue that would be great
Thanks Alan
On a c-max it is worth checking throttle position sensor had many issues and this has been the cause
Having a p2598 error code. Had issues with alternator and changed it. Now getting this. Help pls
Hello. I have one
Ford Mondeo mk4 2.0 tdci 140hp Peugeot diesel engine with automatic powershift.
In park at 1.5 rpm I get vibrations. 2rpm and higher it is gone. also 1rpm then this is gone. What is this vibration? powershift gearbox or diesel delivery problems to the engine or diesel particulate filter. Has anyone come across this on this type of car and has experience?
Alan thanks for all your great videos been a great help with many an issue ive had, question though, how the hell do you get the electrical connector removed, think mine might have been broken in the past, there is no release tab or anything i can find, it has a yellow bracket in the connector that just slides up and down but doesnt release the connector. any help would be gratefully received before i lose the plot and break it
hi paul, many connectors can be a right pain, can't picture the one your talking about but sounds like the yellow bit should slide up and there should be a black tab underneath that you press down..failing that send me a pic at alan.howatt@gmail.com

Very helpful video
Hi mate I have p06a7 still runs and drives but in limp mode
There is no other codes present other than airbag which I know the problem
What causes p06a7 its a 2010 mondeo 2.0 tdci
Hi Alan I think iv got a boost leak somewhere on my mk4 mondeo are there any other pipes to check apart from the 2 intercooler pipes
Are there any egr pipes I could check
Cheers
Pipe from bottom left of the intercooler (driver side) ,it bends right and up to front center of the engine on 2.0tdci...
Behind that bend splits ,opens more when hot ,also may have black oily substance around it so feel all along it.
i got a problem like this but there no code there use to be code but not anymore i change solenoid valve but i still like hesitation while putting my foot down it boost but then you can feel it give up then randomly come back then goes again is there something else i need to check ? any help would help
I had this problem for about 2 yrs and just put up with . I’d changed various parts and nothing worked. Then last Friday the Particulate Filter Pressure Hoses split. Replaced them Saturday and now the car pulls with no hesitation or that surging I would get when under full throttle.
Fantastic videos just got a question my 2011 1.6 diesel osf wheel bearing is making a noise been told it comes in one unit with hib is this correct and would it be the same as a mk5
if your car is a 2011 mk4 mondeo..the front wheel bearings are a bearing and hub flange assembly.
unlike the mnk5 where the bearing is bolted onto the hub...on the mk4 you need to press the old bearing and flange assembly out of the hub...you will need a good press...and press the new unit back into the hub
@@alan4x hi thank you for reply would a wheel bearing tool kit do any good
Good evening Alan, been reading everywhere and could not find similar problem, replaced turbo and p003A appears! No boost, wiring ok, old turbo was only replaced due to noise and oil leaks around it, new solenoid fitted, is that the sign of faulty actuator semsor ? Regards!
Ps replaced glow plugs and cambelt same time.
Would not rev more that 2500rpm.
I've got a problem whereby the car appears to 'hunt' around 1500 RPM. Car is fine cruising at 50, 60, 70mph and with throttle depressed to achieve these speeds. However, when you release the throttle to decelerate, as the revs reach 1500 RPM ish, the car 'kangaroos'. I've initially changed the transmission fluid and filter, needed doing anyway and thought it could've been gearbox related. Having carried out the fluid change, the problem is still apparent. I've seen the video regarding the fuel injector issue too with the 4x tropicana bottles, tubes and unions and wondered if it's an injector(s) but also now wondering if it's the boost vacuum solenoid. Any help/advice appreciated.
Should add that I have a 2010 Mk4 Mondeo 2.0 TDCI 163PS Auto
you really need to connect a diagnostic tool and read any ecu codes first
@@alan4x Cheers for the tip. I’ve got an OBD reader that connects to my tablet, guessing this is a pretty basic and crude version of a pro version. There’s no engine management lights displayed at the moment. Would you run a diagnostic test after doing a test drive, or straight away with ignition on? I’ve been getting spurious results and not convinced some of the codes are faults because of a fault more because of the state of the vehicle at the time of initiating the test, for example ignition on only. Having had a chat with a colleague, I’m going to try giving the mass air flow sensor a clean next.
@@thenortherngrump333 i would clear any codes you have and take for a lengthy road test then see if any code appear
@@alan4x It appears that cleaning the MAF sensor with electrolube/contact cleaner has done the trick. So I now have a auto box with new fluid, a clean throttle position sensor and a clean MAF Sensor. Fingers crossed she’ll run sweet for a bit now

Great video exactly the problem I got how much is the new part
Im not looking at the trousers Alan.
I was 😍😈🤣
Thanks Alan
Welcome
Do you have a video of the actuator operating correctly vs one operating slowly?
no, if i get the chance i will do one
If you need to replace a solenoid, never try the 1/3 price ebay parts.. They do not work.
I can back this up, they don't work not even a bit.
I had the Turbo changed on my 2009 S-Max in April, still having boost code P003A now. Guessing it'll probably be the Boost Control Solenoid!
have you ever had 1.8 tdci drawing air into the fuel filter or back to the tank
yes fuel pipes over top of cam belt cover chaff out and fuel filters are not always good seal
Hi Alan we have a 2010 kuga same problem just after get a engine as last one broke a belt we have switch senor for old engine but no good still p003a
you replaced the solenoid and checked all the vacuum pipes are connected
It's always the small parts that can be the biggest pain in the backside!
Never knew mk4s gave gearbox trouble, or maybe it's around town taxi work that takes it's toll,lot of 3rd gear driving?

Hi Alan, I've got a bit of a mystery on a 2.0 duratorq engine on my volvo v50 (d40204t) engine sounds good, idles lovely, when you drive it, get to 1600 rpm it's like the brakes pull on, no power and black smoke, i suspect turbo, I've gone through all vac system and the sensor on the wastegate actuator, all working, replaced the vac solenoids just incase, i get no fault codes on my icarsoft diagnostic scanner, it's a 58 plate, fuel economy is rubbish as it's just chucking out diesel when pushed beyond 16/1700 revs, I've looked for leaks on intake/charge pipes, it's done 140k but no real funny noises, you can sit and rev it up and it sounds good, but short of pulling of and fitting a new turbo I'm running out of ideas, i have had a no turbo control fault code 2 or 3 times before hence changing solenoids, nothing since, stumped, any ideas? Would appreciate another persons thoughts, thankyou 👍👍

Hi Alan. How can I contact you directly? Need to pick your brains regarding a tricky boost issue with my mk4 2.0 tdci 2010 mondeo. No fault codes. New fuel filter and every other filter, v power diesel, new t belt and pulleys. The issue is under full load its almost like a compressor surge. A flat spot. I am only a few days into ownership tbh and have done so much work on it already but I'm just determined to get to the bottom of this issue. Tomorrow I'm going to clean out the air flow sensor with carb cleaner, I was wondering about replacing my turbo incase the vanes inside were blocked or of the electronic actuator has an issue, ill do a smoke check tomorrow and make sure there are no split vacuum or boost lines, it still is on stock map and has dpf (unknown condition) and stock egr setup. Any help is appreciated dude. I'm really new to the diesel mondeo life haha and really loving the learning. The petrol mk4's I've had always were reliable but diesel is another world haha **edit just finished watching this video and will check out my vacuum solenoid tomorrow. Excellent video man**

@@jonny_s14 hi jonny thanks for reply. Problem is the egr is a bitch to get to on these not like the old mk3. Did you clean or replace it? I know egr can cause fluttering at light throttle, but didn't realise it can cause this surging at full throttle too. Only really in top 3 gears

I had a Vauxhall Astra and I had the turbo go on mine and it cost me a fortune in turbo course in the end the car went to the scrap yard
Hey Big Al what do you drive?
A Mercedes Benz Vito van. It was parked in the parking area at the beginning of this video clip
I used to have a Vauxhall Astra diesel and I had the turbo go in it I changed the core or of the turbo and then it went again it cost me £97 twice because it's brand new turbo was going to cost me £1,000 from Vauxhall dealer what the core itself only cost me just under £100 and I was told that the engine itself had a fault with the oil system in the end and the engine just gave up and the car won't bye-bye to the scrapyard because it wasn't worth repairing
