Citroen Dispatch Problem

    Hello folks, My Van is sick! Citroen Dispatch 1.6HDI 08, 80K k/m. For the last two years it has been suffering a split second loss of power, feels like jolt. It can happen three or four times in the space of ten minutes and then not happen again for a few weeks. That was until last week when it started happening all the time, I can still drive a couple of miles with nothing and then the problem can happen every two seconds. It can happen on light throttle or heavy throttle at low or high speed but usually not in low gears. No fault comes up on the display and no management light. Last week it cut out and as I was coasting to a halt "Fault" came up on the display, but the engine restarted before I stopped. We ran a diagnostics on it and fault codes P0335 (drive shaft position sensor A) P0606 (Plant Processor) and P0341 (Sensor A B1 Camshaft Sensor) were logged. Yesterday I removed the ECU checked the connections but everything looked fine. I was out this morning and its still the same, anyone with any ideas????

    had a similar thing happen on a dispatch. wouldn't pull skin off rice pudding. waiting on a mass air flow sensor from main dealer. funny thing is if you disconnect it it feels like its gained another 3 cylinders and runs without it. worth a try.

    maf or the crank/cam sensor - usually they work ok till heat causes the internals to expand and breaks the connections. Or it could be as simple as a bad connection in a connector block - open the plugs and spray with contact cleaner, re-connect first before replacing. These also have fairly poor quality wiring generally.

    I'd say the Op has this sorted by now...:confused:

    .looking for some advice please..currently driving 04 caddy van 1.9 tdi have bought it second hand in 06 had little trouble with it other than wear and tear(parts expensive)economical to run.want to purchase new similar van or up to medium sized van as expect running costs to increase but it seems like i would be paying for the name in comparison to the spec on offer by the hyundai iload , the vivaro/primstar/traffic or the ford transit custom.
