kangaroo tuscan...help

[ffelan]

help the tuscan keeps kangaroo-ing at more than 50% throttle.... i mean proper rev limiter style nose in the tarmac kangaroo not just hesitant? is this common? can i fix it? cos 0-100 is taking way too long only using half throttle and changing at 4.5k?

its a 4.0 2001 car?

I had similar frustrating problem with my Tuscan (4L 2001 X plate). Car would drive fine under light accleration but once nailed rev limiter effect experienced @ 4000 - 5000 revs. Car referred to dealer who replaced coil,leads,& other bits & bobs but problem remained. Eventually problem identified as faulty lambda sensors. Since replacement of sensors car has not missed a beat. I hope this helps.
