Sounds like it went briefly into limp-home mode. Usually an unexpected sensor value, so might never happen again or conversely get worse/more
frequent.
If you can read out engine codes from the ECU then it might have an error code that will give a hint.
Can be tricky to find, but this thread shows how things can go http://www.vectra-c.com/forum/showthread.php?t=101741
Check you number 3 injector plug for corrosion. Also do a quick google search for 'collapsed vacuum hose' problem.
I've had both of these with the same sort of symptoms, but they're both really easy fixes.
Ed.
has it ever had a new "EGR" ?
Hi all
It has had a number 3 injector plug
No it has not had a EGR valve , i was thinking of going for some gaskets and cleaning the valve today
I will have a good look for split pipes [ any tips best to look ie turbo pipes
Please keep the info coming
PS the car has only 34000mils on the clock
