TDV8 Engine System Fault + Limp at altitude

Hi all,

Dad's 08 TDV8 has got a bit of a strange issue.

Under light pedal application - pulling out of junctions, etc - it will intermittently flag up "Engine System Fault" on the dash, special programs unavailable etc and go into limp home mode. Key off and restart and it is either OK, or it does it again. Putting it into a TR mode other than Normal seems to stop it doing it.

Now, the odd thing is - it has only done it when above about 1300m altitude, below that is absolutely will not repeat it.

Anyone had similar?

That appears to be NAS and 4.4 AJV8 only...

Sounds like an issue with the MAP sensor not working over the full range or waste gate of the turbo acting up (reducing turbo pressure). MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

Just following this up to help others, this turned out, thankfully, to be the two top intercooler pipes and not turbo related
