My 6 has idling problem and almost misfire when i step on the clutch to change gear to N in slow speed. It happens when air-con was switch on. Sensors - MAP, ICV, lamda, coolant temp ECU, coolant temp Gauge & cooling fan switch have been replaced still no joy  Any idea?  |

The idle speed should increase when air-con is on.________________________________________ S Reg Diablo standardsSpec SORNEDR Reg Nile standard spec written off then repaired X Reg Astor in need of TLC R Reg Nile to restore Set of Lions to fit. |

When you run the air-con it puts more load on the engine. Have a look at the lambda sensor, if this is faulty it may well not like idling or low speed when there is an increased load on the engine. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Try unplugging the power steering pressure sensor from the line.The function of this component is to up the revs when it senses more load on the engine with the use of steering at idle. If you already have more load on the engine with the air-con it has been known for this component to cause random stalling issues, and this could well be the cause in your case. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

There are no electrical sensors associated to the clutch on these cars.  If unplugging the PAS sensor has solved the idle cutting out I would say you need a new sensor.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Mine gave up the ghost a while back and its been unplugged ever since  I think I'll throw a new one in for peace of mind. Where's the best place/cheapest place to get a new power steering sensor? |

i think i might need one of these, its like my car has no resistance to stalling sometimes and it gives up when you lift the clutch a little too far without reving a bit________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |
