Vauxhall Vectra accelerator cuts out
Variant: V6 3.0 CDTi auto
Model Year: 2007
Categories:
Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Had the car a week. Drives really well. But twice now the accelerator has just stopped. Both times I'd been driving the car for a little while- 20 minutes or so. Only thing I can relate to both times is that I'd just turned a corner, once left once right.
Push the pedal down- nothing. Switch engine off & on & it's perfect again. No warning lights though.
Car is due in for new intake hose, expansion vessel & link arm to suspension. But I don't think these would cause this problem. Happened this evening & bugs me as I can't do anything until Monday!
Please someone help- would this be picked up on a diagnostics test when car is plugged in again?

Might be worthwhile changing fuel filter as a start off point .

I've had something similar on mine. Mine seemed to clear up after a took ir on a long motor way run. Try taking it on a good run via the mway. I've not had a.problem since
