2005 3.2 Did swb accelaration problem

Hi All,

This will officially be my first time posting anything on a forum!

I need advise on an issue that is simply bugging me senseless!

My father in law recently bought a 2005 3.2 Did pajero. The car drives fine without any trouble but seems to be low on performance. This however is not my issue. When putting foot down the CEL comes on for a short while and then the car looses power. It almost feels like it is going into limp mode. The situation quickly restores itself but under hard acceleration there is a problem.

I checked and cleaned the problematic Egr and intake manifold already. All pipes in good order so I dont think it is an air supply issue. On doing a diy diagnostic scan fault code 43 and 49 popped up. Over boost and timing control valve errors.

Does any of you very knowlegable gents have suggestions as to how to fix this Problem? My life needs to return to normal and this is driving me insane not knowing. I am thinking of replacing the 2 speed sensors and the TCV. Since the fuel pump sits so accessible (eish) I want to get as many opinions as possible before doing the deed. If this fails then I am think the pump itself might be at fault.

Any advise will be much much appreciated!

Many thanks
Jaco
