right mate, there could be several problems. Firstly inspect the inlet manifold and associated pipes for signs of a vacuum leak. Check that the fuel filter is not blocked, restricting the amount of fuel to the engine. There may be a fault with the fuel pump - system pressure low. Ensure that the fuel tank vent pipes are not blocked or kinked. There may be a fault with the fuel injection/engine management system.

Have the exact same proble, Glad its been flagged up again.

Only when the car is cold. Once it starts to warm up its perfect.

Many times Ive pulled off and the car has cut out!

if you have a induction kit fitted that may well be the problem! if not your icv not functioning proprly give it a clean out and clean the filter or replace if its a standard 1,let us know how you get on!

well i have got k&n 57i induction kit, sometimes when i rev it when it starts up the revs drop n it starts to struggle n stutter but after a min of runnin its fine. i guess i will have to get someone to check it out, oh it also always makes a sort of ratterlin noise when im drivin alone without my foot on the accelerator could that be a prob, dont you think its nething to do with the air sensor then, it looks a bit fraid where my induction hose has been sitting on it thanks neway for your help

i had a thread a while ago about this problem too, i had an induction kit for a year and then this prob started, and a mate said it could take a while of havin the induction kit on before a prob like this starts. is this true??
