Changed the afm and throttle position sensor (both second hand parts)+ spark plugs on the XE

feels a bit smoother with these parts but still bogs down ALOT if i slow down, say towards a roundabout then try and pull away quickly in 1st or 2nd or use full throttle

seems to "chug/splutter" then finds its feet and pulls away hard

is this defo overfuelling or something else, like i dunno timing or defo the cts??


still fun to drive tho (5th down to 4th or 4th to 3rd is great fun- which a jag xk found out today lol)

What are your engine temps like, sounds like your suffering from heat soak.

Do you have a K&N Filter on it? - If so, try it with the standard airbox on.

Your plugs will tell you if it's overfueling mate, they'll be black!
