Peugeot Partner High Fuel Consumption

I have a 2019 Peugeot Partner, gasoline engine, with about 228350 kilometers. I've noticed higher fuel consumption and difficulty starting. Could this be a defective throttle valve? I've also read the accelerator pedal module might be the issue.

Hey, I had a similar issue with my Partner. Sounds familiar. Have you tried cleaning the throttle body? Sometimes gunk around the throttle valve causes those problems. What kind of air intake are you running?

Thanks. I haven't cleaned the throttle body yet. I'm not very experienced with that. Could you give more details on inspecting the throttle valve and accelerator pedal module?

Honestly, if you're not comfortable, I'd recommend a workshop. You could try throttle cleaning spray, but if the pedal module is faulty, you're wasting time. Better to have a professional diagnose it correctly. Could save you money.

Understood. I took it to a workshop as suggested. They confirmed a defective throttle valve and replaced it. The final repair cost was 205€. It's now working normally.
