Hi, your fault code is for the following......pay attention now.....
Delta pressure feedback and exhaust pressure transducer. phew....
Basically its a silver box fitted to the bulkhead just behind the brake servo unit. It has 2 pipes going into it and an electrical plug.
This will measure the exhaust system pressure to inform if the catalytic converter is blocked, but the box actually gets blocked with the exhaust fumes and carbon giving the faults you list.
I have been able to fix this fault sometimes by spraying brake cleaner into the box through the pipe openings and giving it a shake. Do this several times to make sure its clean.
if it doesnt work, you will have to replace the box and they cost about 60 quid from ford.
good luck
Paul
