Thanks Brian. Are you able to give me any advice? I'm no further forward really after reading loads on various forums except that this seems to be a very common problem. I've also discovered that my engine is a Puma 2.4 TDCI, not a TD5 as I was first told so this may or may not help.

Hi Mik, thanks I'll try it. Newbies eh?

I have an 08 110 with TD5. A few years ago I had an issue with the engine, shortly after setting off, would go in to a total limp mode, i.e. would not respond to the pedal at all. It always Googed me at the most awkward and embarrassing of situations like traffic lights or crossing a busy road...
