antipollution fault

Post by madbaggie28 »

for a while now i have noticed that the accelerator pedal on my hdi 90 has not been very responsive ie you press it down half way before anything happens so i had a look at it today a found the cable had stretched i have made the adjustment and it feels great again now just one problem every time i slow down to a stop i get the dreaded antipollution fault for a few seconds then it goes away anyone got any ideas

Any chance you've asjusted it a bit too much & now the TPS gives the wrong reading with a closed throttle?
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
