Peugeot 308 SW - My car losing power whilst eccerlating - Dougal22

Firstly I'm new to this forum so hello.

I have a 2010 Peugeot 308sw this year its had a timing belt changed and a major service. It's also gone thru its mot but failed on emission the garage put a redex treatment in and that seemed to help. 2 ish weeks later the car is losing power whilst accelerating it gas been in the garage for a full day with diagnostic checks and also road rest but they have not been able to pin point the problem. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?

Needs a Diagbox diagnostic. Most garages with generic "scan any car" code readers will struggle to fully read a car.

google "planet owners map" to find someone local with the kit to help you. They're just regular Peugeot motorists so won't have a vested interested in making money from you.
