Hi
Got this seat strange one from cold it starts first time does not idle properly, hunting but does rev normally, turn it off & it will not start again for 24 hours it does try start & if you try for a long time with full throttle it will start but very low revs 200rpm & will not rev up at all then dies no fault codes. Another garage had changed the throttle body & map sensor customer because they was on fault code memory but when i check no faults present, live data looks good temp sensor is fine & i have done basic settings to throttle body, done a smoke test no air leaks & checked timing. Thanx

hi an update today i started the car in the morning started first time & when running started hunting so when it cut out same normal shit it does & tried to restart & it did not start with a screw driver pushed the throttle open half way it started but no accelerator pedal. It must mean lack of air entering intake because fuel & spark are ok but why is the throttle died & when the egr valve is disconnected the hunting stops thanx
