Sorry, I have two questions what do you mean by "If fuel to brim, may be vacuum and restricting flow."And second do you think this sounds like transmisson sliping? Because my transmission oil is brown and has no red to it.Many thanks, Any hints would be great

Because my transmission oil is brown and has no red to it.Many thanks, Any hints would be greatFor q1Due to the lack of free space in the tank you can sometimes get a point were there is no free flow. A vacuum occurs and this acts like a stopper preventing the fuel being sucked thro' the fuel pipe.Q2Someone with auto knowledge will reply.Re fuel filter.I think the service book says replace ever 30k's or thereabouts.Filter collects muck etc in fuel so if clogged up then fuel flow will be restricted.By chance have you allowed fuel to drop very very low as if so could be muck in system.Fuel pump........have you ruled this out as cause?

Low fuel light come on?Is 3 between 1/4 and 1/2 full on your car?
I wonder if it's a revs thing? If you only accelerate gently to get up to 70mph that may be the first time you are seeing 3000rpm. Sounds a bit like limp home mode to me. Could be fuel filter issue. Sounds like worth changing. Shop around though as diesel filter is quite dear from some places. If someone can find the part number I am sure it is the exact same part for the kia ceed and soul diesel and may be cheaper.

The car is nearly full on diesel. And biodiesel is sold in the UK by the way but I am not sure about Tasmania.Do you think I have to take all of the biodiesel out of the car then refill it. Or just keep refilling it with normal diesel and that will dilute
Yes the engine completely shuts off. How I know that is because when I lost all the power I tried pressing on the gas pedal again and nothing is happening. I just don't know if it stalled or or the power just cut out. You're recommending not to use biodiesel does that mean I should remove all the diesel in the ystem and refill it with the normal oneMany thanks for the help
I can't remember the rev, I am planning to take it for a drive today and take a video... maybe you guys can get better picture
Hi guys,I was on the motorway today doing about 75 to 80 mph. After about 5 minutes the car cut off poers the eps, airbag and oil light came on. No gas was going into thr car because there are no romsThe car started fine again But shut off again at 75 with the same problem. Also there was a sudden jerk before it stopped the first time but not the next tine.What I noticed is that as long as I stay below 75. The car doesn't havw any problem i30 2011 fd crdi

Hi guys, I know this irrelevant because 60 days, I drop a reply. BUT! Who ever had this problem this is what I learnt:1- Ultimate Diesel is NOT Bio-Diesel (that's what I thought)2- If this happen to you change your fuel filter! This helped me a lot: i30 CRDi diesel fuel filter replacement - instroe. I wanted to take pictures but I was under stress of it not working.Thanks for all the help guys!
