Hi My Peugeot 3008 diesel keeps hesitating when pressing the accelerator pedal,it does this mainly at low revs and is the same wether hot or cold, starts very well and is up to date with service etc, took it back to dealer they cant find anything wrong with it.

25000 miles on the clock, any ideas?

i have the same thing with my ford focus recently, ie: turn a corner in second or accelerate in 3rd after slowing down and it feels like youre pulling a caravan with the brake on?.

 

i ran a bottle of redex through no improvment im thinking either pedal sensor or of managment problem

That diesel engine is a "designed by committee" joint venture and is fitted to models from Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, Mazda and Volvo.  Amongst other annoyances they seem to get through glowplugs fairly quickly and that could explain at least some of the various issues described above.
