If I back off the throttle for a second then put my foot back on it goes off. Only does it when I'm going up hills I can feel it stutter then the EML comes on. Doesn't slow down or lose power? Will keep accelerating even with EML on

Had ICV, AFM and crankshaft sensor replaced within past year.

I'll take it round to my mechanics one night. Hes got the right diagnostic equipment for it and does it for free.

It only comes on when I'm on the motorway doing between 70-80mph going up a bit of an incline. Any other road, any other speed it doesn't come on

TBH it could be anything. Don't listen to people on here. Just take it to your mechanic mate and get a diag done...
