UPDATE 12th Feb 2019.
My car is now fixed.
I have had both EGR valves replaced. The fault code P0404 meant that only one valve was faulty but it seemed a false economy to change just one as it was likely the other would soon become faulty.
My S Type 2.7 now drives like a new car again.

Re: Live Datasteam for 2.7 S Type
Hi Jeff, Many thanks for your response to my query. Yes mine is a DPF model 2007 so maybe they have different readings. The EGR % (percentage) figure shown in the live data refers to the percentage of difference between the EGR valve set point and the actual EGR position. There are two EGR valves, o...

Re: 2.7 twin turbo - P0404 & lack of power
UPDATE. 20th Jan 2019 I have now removed and cleaned the MAP sensor (an easy and quick procedure) but the Restricted Performance and fault code P0404 remains. I used a can of Wynn's Extreme EGR Cleaner directly into the air intake (with air filter removed) but this has not affected the fault code. A...

Re: 2.7 twin turbo - P0404 & lack of power
Hi Dave, thank you for your reply. Indeed my car does have a Cat and DPF. I generally only use it for longer journeys and although the fault code P0404 suggest the problem is EGR performance related, it does not specify a particular fault with one or the other EGR valves so it's possible the case is...

Hi All, I have owned my 2007 S Type 2.7 SE auto for over 9 years with mostly trouble free enjoyment. However recently it started showing the amber Restricted Performance light but when re-started the light went off. This happened more and more often until the car now has a lack of power (as if the t...
