|

Hi,
Im struggling with my Denver, its a 2011 3.0 Auto. It starts ok, ticks over ok, but when I accelerate, for the first 2 or 3 miles Im getting a flat spot for a 2 - 5 seconds before feeling a push of power.
new fuel filter been fitted recently, but it is coming up to its 48k service (next tuesday), but just wondering if anyone had any ideas that I can keep in mind so Im not getting ripped off.
Its an Isuzu main dealer for the service, but want to be sure.
Many thanks
D. |

Could be a lot of things, first step would be getting a fault code scan. I had a similar problem on a diesel audi, it was the mass airflow sensor that was goosed, pretty sure if was caused by the oil on a new k&n panel filter, you don't have one do you? |

I believe there is a gauze filter in the fuel line that causes this issue. One of the old guard should be able to confirm. _________________ 1990 Isuzu Bighorn LWB Mk.I 2.8TD Manual Lotus Edition

Did the problem start after the filter was changed? |

Hi, is the filter change light showing? Mine had what felt like a misfire when the light was on. |
