Hey ive had my car for about 3 months! And all ive had is problems! The major one is it cuttin out. Ive had the sensor checked and they said "dirt" had got into it and now it'll be fine! Although it just happend twice on the way home! Also the battery light flickers when i accelerate! The transmission light was flashing one time on the way home and the car lost 80% of its power and i couldn;t get and speed out of it and it would judder everytime i came to a stop, then it would cut out! Ive also noticed that wen i start it up in the morning the idle rev is 1000 and then as i drive it, it slowly drops to 500! At this point when i try to rev it...it sort of struggles then kicks in:S:S:S:S!!! All ive modded is the air filter! My mate thinks its because the filter is too warm thats why it keeps cuttin out and losing power:S:S The loss of power has only happened once, but its a matter of time before it'll happen again! Im failry sure its got nothion to do with the induction kit as it's fitteds properly!! ANY HELP OR COMMENTS WELCOME:S

Try putting the old air filter on for the day, that will rule that problem out, also the flickering battery light could be one of 3 things there is a lose wire to the alternator, the alternator is nakerd or the fan belt is slipping/not tight enough. The lack of power I can only put down to ECU , try getting an auto electrician with diagnostic computer to run some tests on it and see if its playing up.

As for the problem with the revs in the morning could possibly be the automatic choke.

Hope some of this is helpful to you , im no mechanin but all the above is knowledge from either problems ive had or me sister on her furio or me mates with there saxos hope thats some help mate
