I read a post a few days ago about an accelerator "dead spot".

well my 300e (which has just had a new engine installed at 306'000ks with an engine done 80'000ks) has exactly the same problem.

New wires, plugs, injectors, coil etc. EVERYTHING.

Mechanic thinks is may be a sensor in the intake area playing up?

Pushing the pedal 20% is fine and drives perfectly, after that there is nothing. Especially sitting on 100kmhr, to get to 110 is close to impossible. Yet I know that is not the case with this engine.


Any info is much appreciated, cheers
