My apologies for not writing in French - I am still learning
The problem I am about to describe happened to me three times since I got the vehicle. All three times I was driving in the city, and at first I noticed substantial increase in the engine noise. I parked the car, and slowly pressed the gas pedal while the gearbox was in neutral, to examine the engine noise. The peak noise (sounded like a large truck) was around 1500 rpm, and between 1500 and 2000 the engine was running rough with stuttering. Beyond 2000 rpm seemed to run ok.
I also noticed the cooling ventilator was on all the time, although the engine temperature was around 80.
The best part of the story is that when I stop the engine, wait for 2 min and then restart - problem is gone!
The experts at the local Peugeot garage have no clue why this is happening and refuse to get their hands dirty because I cannot reproduce the problem when I bring the car to them.
Anybody with the same problem?
