It has active codes for aftertreatment efficiency and EGR cooler efficiency. fuel pressure 57 psi,-engine and aftertreatment. I don’t bother myself about EGR cooler efficiency now, because it should be closed while regen anyway.

Part 5: How to do with Volvo D13 check engine code via Premium Tech tool

How to fix a Volvo with D13 that has a check engine code: MID 140 PPID 278 FMI 9 and error message “After-treatment Reagent level abnormal update rate”….

About the question, if you performed a Delete you must verify, that your new parameters data fits the new flash.

If you haven’t perform a delete, perhaps the error don’t comes from the MID140, because this is the instruments panel ECU, therefore, any error means that there is a parameter changed on the MID128 that is incompatible with your actual MID140.

Be aware, this is the symbol that your Delete didn’t work well, most likely you have increased HP because you have change the way the engine interacts, this can result on cracking old cylinders, because, now the combustion is more clean (more oxigen) which means more violent, because of new air flow is entering into the combustion chamber, any solution?

Yes, find a better flash pm to ChesterTech (be patient with him, that patience will be rewarded) Or reduce the amount of Diesel, changing the injectors parameters.
