| mine is very slow to accelerate when i first get in it in the mornings. then all of a sudden it will accelerate like hell. and yeh its got ngk plugs in it but its had them in since ive had it (2 n half years) and this probably has only just started bout 3 months ago |
Change the ngk plugs for bosh super 4s I used NGks once nod it ran cr*p with no power they mess with the coil pack. Once its warm does Is accelerate hard low down then a little harder over about 3500-4000 rpm?

Ye think you have never had a problem with the NGks but have you driven it with bosh super 4s in? You WILL notice a throttle and power difference I was noticeable on mine.
As for the acceleration if it's doing that your vvt sensor is fine then.

Alot of people on here will advice you to use bosh super 4s. And I'm speaking from experience. No probably hope you get it sorted.

Your original plugs must have been knackered then. All a spark plug can ever do is create a strong spark. Super 4's will create the same single spark that any other plugs will do.

I always use the NGK in my 180 rally car. I have always been told the standard bosch plugs are very poor. But Edward is correct all a plug does is spark nothing more so what quality you buy will really just depend on how long they will last against the cost of them

NGK can cause problems with your coilpack and potentially ECU. That's why Peugeot issued a service bulletin about not fitting them
