206 kangarooing
I have a Peugeot 206, X Reg 1900 diesel. It starts 1st time every time and drives well, apart from 1 thing when i`m driving the car at a average speed of about 40-45 in 4th gear, it judders as if its not getting diesel pumped through. It does not cut out but just sort of kangaroos, its a bit lumpy when just ticking over sometimes too. If you change down a gear it clears, but when change up a gear again it starts to judder again. I have read some forums and heard it could be the coil pack, the idle screw or the Ecu switch. Now without inspecting the car could anyone give me a answer to the likely reason to why the car is reacting like this ? PLEASE.

Hey!
When was the oil changed in the car? cos that may be a prob. also the quality of diesel. probably at 40-45 you should not change to 4. i'm not sure, but maybe the engine needs more power to go on (and to gain power one usually changes back..)

Re: 206 kangarooing
When did you last have it serviced, and how many miles has it done since then?
Could it be overdue?
