Technical Poor starting

[Mark712]

Hi there I have 2008 Doblo,it starts but cuts out it does this two or three times until it gets enough fuel( by pressing the accelerator)and once its been idling for a few minutes it’s fine ,but as you start to drive it is a bit sluggish until it’s warmed up a bit .has anybody any thoughts as to where I start looking

ok new fuel filter housing on,new MAF sensor,new sensor on the intake manifold,removed EGR and cleaned.it now starts fine no foot on the gas ,sit a idle fine even when frosty mornings .I thought i had it beat then the EML light came on checked it code p0101 ,i thought this is strange new MAF fitted,so cleared the code went out somewhere fine then coming home i accelerated hard to miss traffic at a junction and the EML light came on again .so i cleared it drove the next day fine normal driving but again when accelarating hard the EML light comes on and the same code p0101. anybody have any ideas

What make MAF did you put on it? Have you still got the old one you could put back on to see if it still does it with that one?

My thoughts exactly

Shame so many parts are now "NEW"..
A bit of trial and error to be had

Great news!

I'm sure your MIL will be simpler to rectify

Would also try the old MAF, but if you don't have it anymore you can also try this with MultiEcuScan.
