Yesterday when I stopped after not driving the car for 2 weeks, the idle of the car was weird. Like going up and down. I then turned off the car and back on again and it worked fine.. Its done this a few times before.. dont know what it may be.. any ideas?

She must have missed you heaps and was quite happy to see you. Hopefully she will settle down and get back to normal.

To be serious is there much more km's on the car since you have left it there, could be they have driven it and refilled your tank with crappy petrol. Just a thought, but from a technical point of view, no idea.

Nope its not the fuel.. same amount of fuel in it as dropped off.. and only 2KM's extra or something on it. To get the tyre fitted.. thats all.

Does it still do it now? If it continues I think that you should take it back to the dealer, I thought the ECU would continuously adjust the timing and thus prevent any weird idling.

My baby would not start, cranked her over for a few seconds :( tried again and still no go even after a couple of seconds, not even a hint of ignition. Turned her off, armed alarm, unlocked and tried again and she fired up but not immediately :birthdaywish:
