Been replaced along with the housing
-
Scanned the car about 3 month since, came up with a knock sensor fault, replaced it, re scanned with no faults but the car/temp problem hadn't changed, gunna try and get it scanned again soon I think, other than that I don't know what to do
-
Yeah the pedal seems fine, no different really from when the cars cold so I have no idea what's causing it :/
-
It never goes above 90 and if I drive say a mile or so without stopping and starting the temperature comes down and the throttle is as normal
-
I've never really noticed it feeling any different but I'll take her out today and see if I can notice a difference
-
Basically, when the temperature hits 90 degrees on the temp gauge ( happens when I'm in traffic or if I have a full car ) as I accelerate the revs basically stop and freeze at whatever rpm the engine is at, then after a second or so the revs then build as normal, anyone have any idea what this might be?

1.0 litre Throttle Problem

Was wondering if you ever got this sorted mate? Mines having a similar problem and I don't know what to do -
Okay dokes cheers mate
-
Where are the new mats from mate? been meaning to get some for ages ?
-
Do you have any before and after pics of the lights, would be interested in seeing the difference
-
My dad just told me he put a new sensor and thermostat on before we did the knock sensor. Have a new radiator which should be getting fitted soon as well so maybe that will stop it gettin hot in the first place but that still doesnt explain the huge power loss :/
-
You any idea how much they are?
-
When the car gets anything above 70° it loses power, usually in traffic or something is when the engine gets hot and then it loses power, normally the car runs with the gauge at the very bottom
-
Wondering if anybody could help. My 1 litre Lupo loses power when the engine gets hot, had the car scanned and it came up with a fault with the knock sensor. Fitted a new knock sensor, scanned again and no faults came up, however the car still loses power when the engine gets hot. It runs fine cold but loses power whenever the engine starts to get a little warm. Its a 2000, with around 110k on the clock. Also the exhaust is blowing just before the back box, doubt this would be causing it but i have no idea Any suggestions would be awesome
