Peugeot 206 xr year 2000 auto, engine revs whilst in park mode and I do not have my foot on the accelerater, also when on the go it jerks alot like its having trouble keeping up with changing the gears? Any idea what could be the trouble here? Thanks

Start by checking for a vacuum leak. That will cause engine speed to go up without a corresponding increase in power. Any air that sneaks in that doesn't go through the mass air flow sensor won't get any fuel to go with it, and that will cause a variety of running problems.
