| Description of the problem | When accelerating hard to overtake, the engine lurches, and the car fails to accelerate further and slows down. The engine fault light then illuminates which switched off by itself after switching the engine off twice. It seems i am not the only person to have this problem as you can see in the comments to this video describing the problem and claiming the problem is a faulty high pressure fuel pump: https://youtu. Be/-sbr28zbofs this seemingly common issue is clearly dangerous as drivers lose the power when they are most depending on it and it seems to be occurring in cars that are not particularly old. |
