power dropping - Niall - 16-12-2012
i know this is going to get some trolling from a certain ginger and his girlfriend who owns the broken ph2 but i had a weird issue today.
Pulled out of a junction and decided to hammer it. Up to 7k in 1st and changed to 2nd, planted my foot again and for a few seconds it lost all power and the eml came on. after a few seconds, it picked up again and off it went along with the eml. got home, got peugeot planet on it and took it for a drive monitoring it. No sensors seem to be misreading.
Its never done it before but it was like i had gone from 1st to 4th then 2nd. I know the fuel filter looks about as old as the car its self and i do have a new one in the boot but surely that would just cause a general loss of power and not bring the eml on?

Did it not throw any codes up? Could cause the eml to come on if rail pressure drops. Change the filter I say

nope no codes. 306s only log a code if its a permanent fault. if its intermittent, it will disappear as soon as its rectified.

Ah fair enough. Probably just a shit filter then, makes a surprising difference
RE: power dropping - Niall - 16-12-2012
hmmm. fancy doing a filter on my car tomorrow whilst im at work? lol

I'd go with the fuel filter being blocked/clogged.

It's French, they do weird things all the time, if it happens every time then worry, otherwise just drive it!

I'd go with Liam, my ICV did it's quarterly stall today just to remind me that it can still make me look like a numpty when it wants to.Thought this was going to be a dedicated Ed-troll thread.
I would have thought this would be a sensor issue tbh? So was your foot planted and the revs just held steady?
RE: power dropping - THE_Liam - 16-12-2012
Meh, some days my heater works, some days it don't. I call it character

no it still picked up speed, just substantially slower than normal. I would say almost like i was driving with the handbrake on but.....well yeah.

No. Seeing as yours is not only diablo but also ph2, it doesnt even start. you cant call being towed by the RAC fast as it wasnt under its own power!
