206 hdi throttle problem
Re: 206 hdi throttle problem
Sounds like APP going faulty (Throttle pedal sensor) You could try recalibrating it.
To reset pedal
Pedal position sensor programming procedure
• accelerator pedal at rest,
• switch on the ignition,
• press the accelerator pedal down fully,
• release the accelerator pedal,
• start the engine without accelerating.
Good luck
