orite guys
any ideas what is the matter with my 1.2 sxi...
it hesitates on acceleration even at really low speeds and the engine management light comes on when going around 70mph, the revs reach a point where the car does not pull
i have replaced:
02 sensor
CAT and middle box
speed sensor
and also there is NO faults coming up on the diagnostics!

i really dont want to spend any more money on it so please could you help.
just a quick fix needed to sell, HAD ENOUGH!
cheers Jonesy

Yeah mines doing this.... I think you mighta commented on my post actually but yeah.... today I was driving and had to put my foot to the floor to move and it just completely stoped accelerating and came to a stop... It seems to do this a lot more when just starting....
