Basically every now and again my car won't start first time, then when it does start everything resets (time and Date etc) and the revs will drop to zero and the car will cut out unless I give it some gas. After a while the problem goes away and the car won't go below 1k revs.
Have been told it's the battery but someone else has told me it's not. Any ideas?
Thanks

Probably the battery yes. My 206 never held on idle if the battery was flat. Sway is with someone else's to try it.
