#1: Dozen of symptoms together! Please help Author: hamed206, Location: EgyptPosted: Sat Jul 26, 2014 4:31 pm ---- Erratic idling, hesitates on acceleration, not burning fuel, excessive gas consumption, exhaust smoke. ....all of these symptoms are permanently happening now significantly. I have no engine management light on. I had the coolant & MAP sensors changed plus the spark plugs during the last car service.
Something to mention, my spark plugs was fouled when I changed them last time.
Any help or advise?

#3: Re: Dozen of symptoms together! Please help Author: hamed206, Location: EgyptPosted: Sat Jul 26, 2014 7:22 pm ---- I parked the car for 2 hours, now driving it no hesitation, no smokes, no smell of fuel, no more abnormal fuel consumption...it is just running smooth! I don't want this to happen again.
I had my car fueled to full tank today, does this has something to do with the problem? I lost 5-6 liters during few kilometers driving! And there were a smell of unburned fuel coming from the exhaust.

I'm suspecting the Lambda as it is an aftermarket one and done about 70K miles.

Do you have an exhaust leak?
#8: Re: Dozen of symptoms together! Please help Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Mon Jul 28, 2014 9:04 am ---- Could be defective MAP or a few other reasons including Lambda but guessing and throwing parts at it gets expensive very quickly.

I had an exhaust smoke (white smoke) when the symptoms were in the worst status. And a smell of unburned fuel. Not sure what do you mean by exhaust leak, if you mean a fault in the exhaust system like cracks, holes...etc, so no.

Not sure if the old 206 models will show the exact fault on a diagnosis test. Usually all faults appear under the name "Mixture Regulation Function"
