 Citroen Xsara Picasso - 06 1.6 Power loss. - Roger.
My daughter's car has suddenly lost power, so much that she had to crawl home from work in 3rd. gear at a very moderate speed.
What is the most likely cause? Would it be a coil problem, as suggested by the dealer who sold it to her? Do petrol engines like this have a mass airflow sensor, for instance?
Any ideas welcomed!
Thanks.

I'd be looking at coil packs first as well.

coil packs/cassette are a common failure on these.There is no maf sensor on this engine.
