citroen c4 1.6 hdi 2009 engine hunting and revs at 750

Post by ed1808 »

hi all dad has just braught a c4 2009 1.6 hdi and on starting has a occasional engine hunt on hooking up a snapon diag toy i had a egr related fault code (code to follow sorry) but this car is running on tickover at 750rpm instead of the recommended 850 i believe..... also it has the elecronic auto box which when in first and trying to pull away stutters slightly ie depress accelerator and it dosnt want to go strait away. could the egr related fault be causing the engin revs to be low and so cause this pull away issue? any help appreciated ta he hasnt had much luck with cars of late and is 74 he braught a 2008 mondeo which needed a clutch i did that for him only for mum to ring me up a week later and say the car is to big for him now please sell it....... lool so impulsivly he went out and braught this c4 from a garage i personaly would have driven past! but he panics and just braught it.. take it back i here you all say hmmmm its 200 miles away and just isnt feasable sadly :shock:
