SLider Member 47 Member For: 16y 20d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 15/06/09 02:16 AM Share Posted 15/06/09 02:16 AM OK here is the story,I left for rowing training at 5:30 this morning and the car started fine and took off OK until I got to the end of my driveway were it spluttered a bit but still moved until I got about 200m down the road where it just died with the engine light showing.I popped the bonnet thinking maybe a hose or something had come off but all was good so I just tried turning it off and on again a few times and after about the 4th time it seemed all good and it hasn't missed a bit since.is this anything to worry about and should I go and see if an error code recorded?if you need anymore info to help in answering just ask.Cheers,Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you let the car warm up before you started driving? I know I'm cranky when I have to get up at 5:30am.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned her back on, and it's been fine ever since Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
