Guys
ive noticed a few new posts about EML and ill running of peoples pandas.
Mine did the same today. Bit about the Car first.
2010 Spec Panda 100HP
18000 miles
Serviced 4 times in its lifetime.
Not sure if Spark plugs are the original ones
Think Original Battery
Well today en route to work I noticed the EML flashing ( never a good sign ) but went off. And has stayed off since.
However I noticed whilst under load/acc the car is hesitant/jerking. Mostly at 2k-3k RPM. Sometimes as high as 5k RPM.
The 5k one is now and again but I can replicate the 2k-3k one anytime I want. Its like something is holding it back.
Normal driving is fine when I build up speed slowly. There was no issued cruising 80 ish all the way home which was a 10 mile drive
Ive already called Fiat and booked it in. Just for them to do a diagnostic is £96 + VAT....
Car is Standard bar K&N panel filter. Its never thrashed from cold or if ever really. Rarely taken past 5k RPM.
Its genuinely pootled around town and not abused.
Nothing was changed since problem happening. Before driving it today I jacked it up to changed a tire from a puncture and that's it. The night before there was no issues.
Any ideas I can try would be helpful. Maybe change the plugs. Or clean lamba sensor or anything else ??
To be fair I don't expect such a relatively young car with low miles like this to have issues like this already.
