    Hi Again
    this 306 turbo of mine has a little problem someone may be able to
    help with......on the motorway, if I put my foot down the car pulls away
    sluggishly, but if I lift my foot off and then slowly put my foot down a
    little at a time its like a rocket, push a little harder and it sort of just
    hangs for a while..bit weird and hard to put into words...

    Well here's hoping people

    Oh and have a great wonderful new year

    I've had a similar problem with a Xantia. In that case it was the EGR valve
    being held open. My local man who does these things disconnected it and all
    was well.

    I will try both, a cleaner ( I hope you mean a diesel additive?) also when I
    find my EGR valve (whatever and wherever thats is) I will disconnect it and
    see what happens..thanks for you help guys :)

    Had something similar, except on a totally different car! (Renaul 19
    petrol)

    Turned out to be a faulty air flow sensor - so could be the same?

    Get to a good garage / tuner and they should be able to sort it sharpish

    Best of luck...
