Yeah, when it goes to shit, its when the revs fall below 1,000 and the engine splutters because I didn't balance throttle properly.Odd that you get no codes with that lambda sensor. The system doesn't restrict low gears. These engines are a hoon's dream for traffic light derbies (as long as a speed camera isn't around).
What is the mileage? Do you get misfiring when it degrades? If the engine intake needs ash de-crudding this sort of thing happens, and it's fine at restart, It's another form of upset air/fuel ratio. If needed it isn't a quickie.
Thanks David if the canister solenoi valve isn't expensive, should I just replace it?Possibly the 'canister' solenoid valve is faulty. Item #2 in the diagram, which is for an EP6DTS 175 engine and pre-2009. Check the piping for the carbon canister is good and ensure there is no fuel inside it. The fuel tank will have a vent valve and if it fails, it can let raw fuel enter the carbon canister and hence the inlet manifold to cause overly rich running. That may require a new tank as the vent valve is not likely to be sold separately.
Just more for you to investigate.

They're a fair way away (I'm further south of city as they are North of it) and I can't take much time off work as I've only been working at new place for several months, but I could at least shoot them an email.Pop in at the good people from Peugeotech for their opinion.
What about MAF? No MAF?The EP6DT engine has the turbo pressure control mounted under the inlet manifold. It's a solenoid operated vacuum controller. One of its tubes is open to atmosphere, which might be confusing. The others are vacuum depression in and out.
The sensor on the top pipe is a Bosch manifold
They indeed just moved to Brendale a few weeks ago.They're a fair way away (I'm further south of city as they are North of it) and I can't take much time off work as I've only been working at new place for several months, but I could at least shoot them an email.
When I searched them, it came up with Brendale address. Is that old or new?
Ha Seasink investigating daughters coolant leak today and found 2 of the 3 hoses on the vacuum solenoid floating in the breeze but a bit of oil leakage from said solenoid. Haven't noticed and performance issues but reconnected them while I was there. Coolant leak ongoing as not from waterpump but thermostat or pipe between. Great access NOTThe EP6DT engine has the turbo pressure control mounted under the inlet manifold. It's a solenoid operated vacuum controller.

This is the first car I've owned (have had 7) that didn't have MAF. Own Pulsar GTi-R and Mazda3 MPS so it's very unusual for me to not find a MAF even on Turbos.Would you want a manifold air flow sensor controlling the engine with a turbo blow off valve fitted? The engine computer can calculate what is needed from the manifold pressure.
