I have a 206 hdi 90, when I go over a bump or pothole now and then, it goes into a kind of limp mode it feels slower, but when I press the red fuel cut off switch under the bonnet the car goes back to normal driving?
Why would it do this, is it normal?

I don't just it does it now and then when I go over a little bump, some bumps it does it and some it don't.
I don't cut my car off it still drives but feels like I'm towing 2 cars behind it, like lack of performance until I press that red cut off switch, it does this itermittently

mine was in limp mode and cut out on me 4 times while on the way to a meet in peterborough and back. the only way i found out was having someone read my ecu with peugeot planet, stuff like ABS ECU fault is realy a garages domain. don't get me rong when things go wrong with mine ill fix it myself, but that was one thing i can't fix as they say the ECU need a neuk and boot
