  1. Thanks gents for your replies, i’m still investigating the problem, once i have the solution i will put it here although feel free to continue with any advice cheers Dave
  2. Upon reflection is it possible the fuel pump is giving up, as per the hard turnovers before starting, not so perfect idling, lean reading and not so good mpg ? My mechanic has a sophisticated code reader and every check he did came back with no fault apart from the lean reading
  3. Before having a full service recently the car had a bit of an erratic idol at tick over. Had the service done, all filters, fuel filter, oils, spark plugs etc etc replaced. erratic idol still existed, after a couple of fuel injector cleaner solutions added to the fuel at full tanks, the engine management light came on. I have plugged the car in to a reader, only two codes came up one for a clutch sensor which was green but a lean fuel code came up, nothing else, no mass air flow sensor codes, or anything else, my mechanic wasn’t too worried and reset the E/M light. Half way home of a 200mile journey it come back on again. now the start up is really laboured, 3 to 4 long turn overs be fore it fires up, and stop start journeys the car starts up straight away, but after an hour of non use the car goes back to the start up issues. There is no smoke discharge at all, although now does smell a bit rich at first turn over. MPG Is way down as well from 32mpg to 22mpg. no miss fire codes or any other fault code available . can any one shed some light its the 1.8 turbo petrol engine
