in my 2003 citroen c5 when i accelerate off in first gear there is no power and it feels as though it is going to stall. it feels like there is no biting point in the clutch and i have to push hard on the accelerator whilst letting the clutch out very slowly to get power. can anyone help?

I think we need a bit more info - engine, mileage, does this only occur at low revs and is then car ok, is it the same with hot or cold engine, service history and any recent work on the car, can revs be increased steadily with car in neutral, have you done any checks yet e.g. looked under bonnet for air leaks/loose hoses ?
