diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0101 & P1109. We have had several instances where DTCs P0101 & P1109 had been set and the car recovered into the dealer, only for them to find that the original equipment engine air intake filter had been substituted for a non-approved after-market type (applicable to both dry and oil coated types).

Under certain conditions such as a discharged battery or an interrupted programming procedure, the vehicle ECU (Electronic Control Unit) may lose communication with other engine management systems.

The increased frequency of battery disconnection/reconnection that vehicles are subjected to during transportation from the factory to the dealer or in some instances the prolonged storage, vehicle inactivity and resultant battery discharge may result in DTC?s (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) being generated by the vehicles ECU (Electronic Control Unit).

TSB reminds dealers of correct replacement and running-in procedures.

concerning the necessary procedures required to ensure that that the air conditioning compressor is correctly ?run in? after any major HVAC repairs/replacements have been carried out.

Insufficient lubrication will result in compressor failure due to seizure, reducing air conditioning performance and also generate diagnostic trouble codes.
