Unfortunately there may be a few reasons - I used to run the car then stop somewhere - pull of about an hour later & get exactly what you have. It got worse during the summer - the same spot on the way home from work - I used to boot it up a hill - it turned out to be a thermostat in the coolant hose - £15 & sorted. I can't believe it's just happened |

Just found this thread, sounds like a faulty fuel filter.

Are you in the RAC - call them out that's how I sorted mine. |

Does yours only do it on hard acceleration from stand still? |

His wife used the car for school run and shopping, probably never got out of 30 mph zone, in 3 years she done 12000 miles, I got it, and withing 30 mins I was on motorway booting it.

Thanks, to be honest I don't mind paying out as I'm so happy with it, I just would Like it done sooner rather than later. |
