#1: problem changing gears and starting in cold Author: lisa206, Location: BirminghamPosted: Sat Feb 11, 2012 3:45 pm ---- car was fine in summer but now seems its probably due to the cold.When i start car its not steady. Revs low then normal a few times. When i'm driving and when press clutch down to change gears the car will under rev and cut out , but sometimes won't cut out will just under rev. tried coil pack and spark plugs :S

Will try a temp sensor, hopefully sorts it.
