Engine Trouble
My car has just started playing up on me. It seems that when I have the throttle more than a 1/4 open with the revs about 2.8/3K the engine cuts as if the boost cut is coming in, or the fuel pump is cutting out.
The car drives fine as long as I don't give it more than 1/4 throttle.
I have had it up to 80/90 in 5th like this but if I put my foot down @ say 30 in 5th the problem is back and the car lurches forward and back until you t=let off.
Has anyone had this problem before and could you please advise me.
Thanks
Chris

hi m8 my car is doing similar and has been for a while, progressivly getting worse, mine is fine when i first start the car and starts doing as you described after a short while, i have replaced the MAF sensor just today as recomended but the situation is just the same, i have noticed that the hotter the engine gets i.e the longer its been driven the worse it gets, let me know how you get on and il keep you updated, i am looking at replacing the coolant sensor next
