Citroen Jumper 2016: Black smoke, engine light and loss of power - experience with boost pressure system problems wanted

Unsteady engine

Loud hissing on acceleration

Black smoke from exhaust on acceleration

Stalling while idling

Shaking while idling

Jerking on acceleration

Check engine light on

Loss of engine power

Whistling noise

Hi guys, I have a strange problem with my Citroen Jumper diesel engine (built in 2016). Smokes black when accelerating, check engine light is on, loss of power, cranky engine, jerking when accelerating, loud hissing and whistling when accelerating, stuttering at idle and shaking when idling. I suspect there may be a problem with the boost pressure system. Does anyone have any experience with this? How did you get this solved at the garage? Any help would be great!

Hi, I had a very similar experience with my Citroen Berlingo 2014 model. Am not a car expert but have had some experience with cars. In my case, it was mechanical damage to the turbocharger that caused these symptoms. I took the car to the garage, they did several tests and finally confirmed that it was the turbocharger. In the end I had to pay 1070 euros to fix the damage. Could you please tell me more about your car - engine size, mileage, etc.? With more information I might be able to help more specifically.

Hey, thanks for your answer. My car has a mileage of 132300 KM. The last service was a few months ago and since then I haven't noticed anything unusual until this problem occurred. I'm not sure what the exact engine size of my Citroen Jumper is, but I know it's a diesel engine. Now I also suspect it could be a problem with the turbocharger. I think I should take it to the garage and get it checked. Thanks again!

Hey, you're welcome! Yes, that definitely sounds like a problem with the turbocharger. Given the mileage and the symptoms given, I would also suspect this. It's annoying, but the sooner you get it checked at the garage, the better. Keep us posted on how things progress and good luck!

The error code P008700 indicates a fuel rail/system pressure too low. This could be due to a faulty fuel pressure sensor, a weak fuel pump, or a clogged fuel filter. Since you've already changed the diesel filter and checked the injectors, I would suggest checking the fuel pressure sensor and the fuel pump next. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, I would recommend taking your car to a professional mechanic. Please keep us updated on your progress. Do you have any other questions?

Let our mechanics help you!
