engine dies at 3500rpm
« on: 12 May 2009, 18:21:15 »
Hi got trouble with my 2.5, as soon as i get the engine reving up to 3500 rpm it shuts down. No engine management light, Engine management light comes on if continued to hold revs at 3500rpm.  :'(

I can tell you now its the CS sensor. you'll get code 19. my car did exactly the same thing. ( look for the thred "loss of power by 3500 rpm" )  at 3500 rpm it starts to stutter / cut out.  :y

I had a problem on my previous omega V6.  When it got to a certain RPM (Can't remember what RPM, but it was above 3500 I think), it would not go any further, or change in to the next gear.

It did not cut out - just would'nt rev past that point.

It turned out to be the EGR valve at fault.

There was no engine management light on.

I would follow the advice from other members first as I am only stating my experience.

I think the EGR can be disconnected to test for this problem, but don't take my word for it.

Hope this is of help. :y
