1.1 Engine Keeps Cutting Out

[citroeneddie]

C3 1.1 engine keeps cutting out and needs revs to get going again. Happens when engine warm or idling. Dealer thinks it is a coolant switch.

 

Any ideas any one?

 

Thanks in advance.

Had a download to the ecu so hopefully all okay.

 

Will keep you informed.

Glad you got it sorted mate.

[citroeneddie]

Thanks but we'll wait and see as it only happens about once a month.

 

With the new download, have noticed the date stays on the screen when the radio is on.

 

Does yours or was it like that before? I can't remember

if the software update doesn't work then consider the idle control valve or throttle body clean out or even a split/loose vacuum line

Thanks for the advice Dave.

I am not sure about the Date thing on mine Eddie as I have always got the Trip Computer on Display (How Many Miles Remaining In Tank) like. ill check though and let you know

Think I went through the same problem - was told it was a thermostat but didn't do the job - needed a download to fix the problem.

 

Details in another C3 thread on this :-)

 

Had no cutting out problems since

Hi Eddie,

 

yes - no problems at all since.

 

Now if I could only get my spare remote synced up (another thread) without having to fork out cash :-)

 

 

Thanks Greenhills.
