Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion

You could try cleaning the MAF sensor, or just disconnecting it [the engine will run in a default mode], and check for leaks in the induction system.

Generally coil pack, MAF and injector faults would give symptoms across all running / driving, rather than just acceleration lag / hesitation.

Hence, need to narrow down the symptoms to what happens and when it happens and methodically work from there and use diagnostic codes to help.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2003 carrera4 3.6 hesitates when I try to accelerate and does it nearly all the time. Anyone got any ideas

POST 2Original post

Can be caused by several factors and need to narrow down when it happens and what happens. Such as does it start fine? Idle fine? Any warning lights? How long has this been happening? Is it different on a flat road v going up steep hill? Have you been using it regularly with regular refuelling? When was fuel filter, last changed? See if any error codes are reported (you'll need to plug in a code reader and even the cheap ones that work with apps give basic code reading) and clear the codes and see if same codes come back as you can get old codes still in the memory and also different codes reported - from experience diagnostic codes are not 100% when fault finding.

POST 3Original post

Have you checked Broken coil pack or injectors

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

will act on what has been said tomorrow thank you very much Cris

POST 6Original post

Hi Cris, I agree with all of the above, in particular Marc’s suggestion to plug-in some appropriate diagnostics to get a better idea of what could be causing your problem otherwise you’re just shooting in the dark. You could try cleaning the MAF sensor, or just disconnecting it [the engine will run in a default mode], and check for leaks in the induction system. Jeff

POST 7Original post

Generally coil pack, MAF and injector faults would give symptoms across all running / driving, rather than just acceleration lag / hesitation. Hence, need to narrow down the symptoms to what happens and when it happens and methodically work from there and use diagnostic codes to help. Otherwise can end up expensively replacing parts without solving the problem.
