Cheers, for some reason it’s more evident when driving -
The car has 83k and has had a recent service, from time to time the car idles roughly and almost cuts out until the engine kicks in with a few extra revs, would you start with cleaning the throttle bodies or are there more common faults on these?Seems ok on a cold startmany thanks as always Andy seems to clear after a few miles

hi guys, i have a fiesta that's been stood a month (was fine prior) and we have had to start it with a jump pack, its now running rough and has put the light on, its left 2 codes, P1794 and P061D, the codes are generic it seems and the mechanic thinks its the ECU

Both the same, I took in a 58 plate 2.0 sdi golf yesterday and offered it around the trade, they’re worse than punters, I’d made sure I’d left a wage in the car, I’ll block it next time

go to DVLA website and if it's with trade it will say you may be able to tax this car at the Post Office
