Hi Guys, I have this big problem weeks ago. When engine is cold, I started on and at idle, the engine is very unstable. if I speed up the engine works fine, stops and engine again not smooth. After temp reaches normal temp, the engine works better at idle , not at all but at least 80%. the problem is random, sometimes the problem is not present for 2 days, and again happens. Sometimes when I push the accelerator all its way down, the engine detonates and the gas smell is present, like if mix were lean or rich. Took the car to Citroen and scanner does not show anything but they recommend to change computer replacement is 2.500 euros!!!. Any hint? can the computer fail that randomly?
