Astro problem in Freiburg!

  • Hallo


    hope you can help me....


    i'm having trouble with my '93 Astro (Z) - its running really rough


    my mechanic, Klaus is having real trouble understanding and dealing with the problem


    can anyone recommend me a Autohaus (Garage) to take it too to be fixed??


    i am trying myself to fix it by cleaning the EGR valve but trying to get this off is really proving a problem - i need some better imperial tools (3/8 Zoll)


    here is a few videos of it running on youtube....

  • sorry for my poor help...


    but code 54 says:

    Kraftstoffpumpenspannung zu niedrig
    Dieser Code wird vom ECM erzeugt wenn eine Spannung von weniger als 2 Volt gemessen wird, die an die Kraftstoffpumpe geliefert werden soll.
    Mögliche Fehlerquellen:
    * Überprüfung des Kraftstoffpumpenrelais
    * Kabelbruch in der Zuleitung zur Pumpe
    * Korrosion der Steckverbindungen und Kontakte


    hope it will help?

  • Hi Rich,


    I use the Rothewald Toolset from Louis and I am happy with it.
    If the link does not work try the article no. "10003570" in the product search field.


    You can order it online or visit a Louis Store. I think next to you is the Louis MEGA Store in Weil am Rhein:


    Hauptstraße 222
    79576 Weil am Rhein
    Tel. 07621-16 12 32 0
    Fax 07621-16 12 32 1


    Mo.-Mi. 9.00 bis 20.00 Uhr
    Do.-Fr. 9.00 bis 21.00 Uhr
    Samstags 9.00 bis 20.00 Uhr


    Very convenient for you might be the fact that Louis has a special foreign customer service hotline:
