Morning all,
I have a 2007 Panda with the 70hp 1.3 Multijet engine with 140k miles on the clock (it's a lot I know).
Over the past year I have been having a problem with a flat spot, jerkiness and excessive grey smoke during hard acceleration. Mostly it happens when it's raining moderately hard or when the car is cold on a morning. Once warmed up the flat spot improves and the smoke reduces.
The car has had a new timing chain in the last 10k miles, although this has made no difference. I'm reading lot's of things about MAP & MAF sensors, the Turbo and the EGR. I have plugged a cheap diagnostic cable into the car and used MultiECUScan but it hasn't found any error codes.
Can anybody shine any light on this?
Cheers, Dave.
