Hi,
So I'm having another annoyingly mysterious error with my car. After driving for a while (heating the engine), the engine seems to run into some problems.
Firstly, there has been some instances where the engine has stopped on idle. Other times, the RPM just dips below 7-800 but it manages to "recover" quickly, also only when idle.
Secondly, there has been some instances where the engine won't start again after it has been stopped. What I then have to do is wait for some time (I'm guessing to let the engine cool) before I can try successfully starting it again.
Looked around some of the hits i got from Google, but every new thread I click has a different suggestion without OP really confirming nor debunking the theory... (I promise, this one will be better than that).
Does this error sound familiar? What are some things I should check? Keep in mind it cranks and starts perfectly fine every time, when the engine is cold. And this happens somewhat sporadically, but it seems to happen typically when I've been running the car at high RPM for a while.
EDIT: BTW my car is a year 2000 Peugeot 306, 1.6L, petrol.
