Hi All,

My Navara D22 ST-R 3.0 Di (5-speed manual) has performed flawlessly for 9 years. However today (first time driven in rain for months) I experienced an engine power problem. The best way I can describe it is that when I press the accelerator nothing happens, the engine isn't rough and isn't missing but it just seems to stay at idle. Once when it happened I rolled into a car park and saw the engine was idling fine at 750 rpm when I was asking for throttle. It has happened in almost every gear including 5th. Towards the end of the drive home I worked out that if I quickly pumped the accelerator when it was happening it would pick up and go.

Could it be a problem with a throttle sensor? Has anyone else experienced or heard of a similar problem?

Cheers,
Rob
