    Ok car drives fine at times

    Start her up and she idles fine few minutes later she's idles a little lumpy and eventually cuts out! Also when driving more so when cold she splutters when driving and have to put your foot down to get her going again.

    No engine management light on the dash. Has a new lambda sensor

    Any suggestions will be taking her to a French car specialist if no luck on hear

    I'm thinking possible air leak on inlet?
    UCV? But she does idle fine for a fair while

    When your giving her a bit of welly she goes great just trys to cut ou and goes sluggish for a few seconds

    The most likely source is the idle control valve

    Give it a good clean this will hopefully sort it out if not it may need replacing

    Try giving the MAP sensor a clean/ swap with a friends.
