Your thoughts please

Not a bike engine so I am totally stuffed -
My daughters Peugeot 306 HDI turbo iesel has developed a fault which has brought on the management warning light.
Had the fault read at two different garages and both said TPS so replaced it with a new item but the fault and management light persist.
Symptoms are just a complete lack of power,when you accelerate it will just slowly pick up revs. I was wondering about the Airflow meter but thought I would see if the people on here had experience of this kind of problem.
Any opinions would be appreciated
Many thanks
Andy

last time i had this it was a broken map sensor (only due to transport of the engine) and MAF sensor.

Once I replaced the map sensor it was still sluggish, but improved lots when I disconnected the MAF sensor.
Then replaced it, with a new MAF, and all was good.

That said, IIRC the broken MAP sensor gave a TPS error.
Maybe a vaccum hose has come loose?

Agree with above. Disconnect the sensors in turn and give it a little drive to pin piont the problem then replace.
Mine was the MAF if I remember correctly.

Had a similar lack of power and revs due to a knackered MAF.

Blocked air filter, blocked fuel filter or the intake air hosing collapsing under vacuum - not taking the wee, I've seen the obvious missed many a time!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Many thanks for all the suggestions - spot on with the MAF sensor - unplugged it and went like a scalded cat again so new sensor ordered up
Cheers
