my saxo the same dies at 4000 rpm and has no power and the engine sounds like its misfirein bin told its the stepper motor or the tps

i had the same symptoms on my vts engine, it only happened after a long time of driving, ive changed every sensor on the engine, a peugeot diagnostics showed nothing, the last sensor i changed was a crank sensor, i would advise this before you spend money on anything else to be fair, ICV, TPS then the crank sensor, i think it has cured mine, but ive gotta take it out a long drive to make sure lol,

mines like it all time hot or cold and when your drivein its like when a cluch is sliping just no power and when u boot it revs to 4000 rpm and stops sounds like your red linein it :wall:

im glad im not the only one lol. mine has irratic idiling, stalling and a dead spot about 3000rpm. had diag done and it came up with stepper motor, single point inlection and tps. replaced all of them and still no luck so good luck mate and keep me posted if you get any where

crank sensor i still say

i had a diagnostics done, gave nothing, so run through the ignition cycle, and my TPS was only showing idle/mid would never go to full, so replaced it, and still get the problem after the car seems to get proper warm, only had lambda and crank sensor left to check, just gotta take it a run and test the crank sensor

ive changed the cracksaft sensor and the lamba/ stepper motor and tps next if that dont work probs just break it doin my head in
