13 | February 2016 Ford GTDI WASTEGATE ISSUE Some 2012-2013 Ford Edge and Explorer vehicles equipped with the 2.0L GTDI (gaso- line turbocharged direct injection) engine may exhibit DTC P1015 or P1016. 1. Inspect all hoses routed to the turbo- charger wastegate regulating valve solenoid for disconnection or damage. Repair as needed. 2. If no hose problem is found, replace the turbocharger wastegate regulating valve solenoid. Torque the two 8 mm retaining bolts to 90 in.-lbs. If equipped, remove the shield covering the flter and discard. The new turbocharger wastegate regu- lating valve solenoid is available as P/N CB5Z-9E882-A. Cadillac CADDY GRIPE Some owners of 2014 Cadillac CTS sedans may comment that the power driver seat is inoperative. They may also complain that the power outside mirror is inoperative. Do not replace the memory seat module (MSM) for this concern. Using the GDS2, request DTC informa- tion from the memory seat module. It may report "no communication" with the MSM. Other modules may set U0208 (loss of com- munication with MSM). Engineering is aware of this concern and is working on a long-term resolution. In the meantime, the memory seat module logic fuse can be removed for at least 10 seconds. This action will remove power from the MSM and reset the module. After the module has been reset, power seat and mirror function will return. Dodge and Jeep HOT MOPAR This bulletin applies to 2010 Dodge Cali- ber, Journey, Avenger, Sebring and Jeep Compass/Patriot vehicles equipped with a 2.4L engine, built before April 20, 2010. If the concern involves no A/C above 50 mph and/or the engine running hot/over- heating, inspect the primary thermostat housing for a resin material debris blocking the cylinder head coolant port. Removing the restriction will correct the issue. Audi ABUSED POWER OUTLET According to Audi, with regard to 2009 Cabriolet A4 models, if the cigarette lighter/12-volt accessory outlet will not heat, the retain- ing tabs in the lighter socket are pushed out too far from the socket to hold the lighter element in place for the heating process. Generally, this is caused by using the lighter socket as a power outlet for acces- sories such as cell phone chargers, radar detectors, etc. Remove the cigarette lighter fuse and remove the heater element. Using a fat blade screwdriver, bend the retaining tabs inward. Reinstall and test. ● Technical Service Bulletins Technical Service Bulletins
