Part No:
6003

Brand:
i6 AUTOMOTIVE


Problem:
The flaps are fully open during higher load conditions to maximise volumetric efficiency and power output. The swirl flaps are a poor design, they are prone to failure. When the swirl flap breaks, the debris falls into the engine, either sticking in the valve port and jamming it open, causing the piston to collide with the valve, or falls into the cylinder itself causing the piston and head to become damaged.


Symptoms:
There are no associated symptoms. If the swirl flaps have failed it then an engine rebuild will be required.


Fault Codes:
There are no associated fault codes with these symptoms.


Solution:
