g60 bucking and sluggish on part throttle, now sorted.

[coolrado 0]

on the way home this evening the car suddenly felt as if it lost power, if i kept the revs steady it seemed fine but if i tried to accelerate slightly it would just bog down then lurch forward and start bucking, if i put my foot flat to the floor it pulled fine, could this be isv venting boost or a boost leak?

it really does kick and lurch quite badly.

 

any ideas????

had a new 1m ecu pipe a few months ago, i also bypassed the isv and just put the mini k&n back on it and its didnt sort the problem, i'm thinking maybe the closed throttle microswitch or a boost leak.

 

it idles fine and its ok on full throttle its just when holding it at part throttle or trying to accelerate slightly it just kangaroo's like mad.

blue temp sender could be a poss like flusted said, cuases it to think its running cold and overfuel?
