Hi all, I'm calling on the collective minds of PH to help with a problem with my car.

If I drive normally and change gear below 3k, it runs ok, but if I put my foot down and accelerate harder it seems to cut out momentarily and then flash the glow plug light (if I turn the ignition off and on it goes off). If I then accelerate it feels like the car has lost all power and barely gains speed.

Has anyone experience this, or has an idea of what it might be??

I look forward to hearing your replies.

Thanks, Flipper

Mine did exactly the same. It's the EGR valve sticking open. Look this up on the forums. U can put in an EGR blanking plate in and it should cure the problem. Worked instantly for me.

If its not that it will be a duff fuel injector, which some specialists will change for a recon part for about £130 each.
Try DieselElectro in Norwich.

Cheers.
