Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the ANU engine.

Engine ANU in the Ford Galaxy 1.9 TDi (66kW) commonly faces EGR valve clogging, turbocharger wear, and injector issues. Diagnose EGR problems by checking for rough idling or reduced power; cleaning or replacing the valve prevents buildup. Turbocharger faults often manifest as loss of boost or smoke; inspect for shaft play and oil leaks, replacing worn units as needed. Injector failures cause misfires or poor fuel economy; test injectors and replace faulty ones. Regular oil changes with quality oil and timely air filter replacement help prevent premature wear. Monitoring coolant levels and timely timing belt changes also ensure engine longevity.
