406 revs drop off in 1st & rev - MarkD
I have a Puegeot 406 1.8 16v with 75k miles, though only 2 yrs old. I find that when I pull away the revs just fall off and it would stall if I didn't slip the clutch and give it more gas. Similar happens in reverse too. The idle speed looks fine, about 800 rpm and pretty constant, the MPG is what I would expect and the engine sounds very quiet and always starts first time. This will occur from warm or cold and continues throughout any journey.
