Speed tends to cut off

Asked by GuruFP3DX May 01, 2020 at 09:05 AM about the 2004 MINI Cooper Base

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hello and good day all...I have a mini cooper R50 chassis number
WMWRC32070TG20243. my car's problem now is when ever i try to
accelerate,my car tends to cut off by it self,and by forcing to accelerate more,it
ends up my car engine shuts down..I give it a start,it starts normally..only
problem is when i drive the car again,same problem occurs..
I already replaced/repair my DME which for a few weeks my car runs
normally..but now,the problem appears again..

Is it possible its the Cam-shaft sensor or the crank shaft sensor that i need to
replace?

I already changed my 1.Fuel pump 2.Battery 3.Air-filter 4.Throttle-body 5.Spark plugs Funny thing is there's no faulty code that pops up on to the dashboard. I did try three different workshops for diagnose,sadly no faulty code can be read. And those 3 workshops couldn't find what the problem is..

Thank you so much for the tips..I might try and start by checking the EGR valve..But is it possible the cam-shaft sensor or the crank- shaft sensor is involved in this?

Well actually during driving, it does have some of those symptoms such as jerking,poor acceleration and maybe perhaps misfire. do have an email address that i can share how it looks like on video..i’ll try..
