Had this problem for a while now. I First fort it might of been The lambdas so I replaced them.

To no avail. But The cars still running like a Dog the problems I have.

-Iddle is Lumpy Flits in between 0.5 RPM and 1.5RPM
-Engine will pull and Shudder
-Engine Cuts out at idle (not all the time)
-When revving there seems to be some black spots were it will feel like its holding back then will accelerate

Now I have Uprated cams and pullies Have been fine for about 6 months from having them fitted.

Iv taken it to Citroen and they wouldnt even tell me what the problem was. Could the problem lie with the cams?

Or could it be Something simple like a coilpack?

There is no Engine light on.

Can anyone help me?

Hi i had a similar problem until one day my car just cutt out completly whilst i was driving then my engine light came on. I had to call the aa out. basically he replaced my ignition coil pack, which sits into the spark plugs, this wasnt working properly and wasn't firing all spark plugs when starting up hence why it may feel slugish or holding back. The man said it was a common thing in citroens and it was the first thing he tried.

it cost me £100
but i just looked on ebay and they have some under £100 look for peugeot and citroen as they will both fit.
