Hi everyone,
Long time since I have had to ask for help can usually find what I need so i'm sorry if this is a double up thread.
I have searched and searched different ways but cant find a similar issue or wording it incorrectly. I have an issue which had started around 10000k's ago and has been intermittent and impossible to this point for me to diagnose as it happens in usually very inconvenient times.
Today i was lucky/unlucky enough for it to happen 3 times in a place to pull out of traffic: now for the problem what happens is I can be accelerating changing gears or trying to take off from a stand still and I will instantly lose all throttle/forward momentum and glide to the side of the road, engine still running and no error codes. Since I was not stuck at a give way I pulled up the ODB2 Scan and could see that it was registering the push on the pedal to accelerate but no movement on anything else (attached a screenshot). A quick off and on again and away ago, today happened almost straight away again but after a 2nd restart it was fine.
My first thought was a fault with the accelerator electrics but it still registers with the ECU so now I am unsure.
I haven't tried an ECU reset, will be doing a service this weekend and plan to reset it then if there are no other solutions to try it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
