#1: Problems Starting and Cutting Out Author: scjgreen, Location: Torbay, South DevonPosted: Sun Apr 13, 2014 10:22 am ---- My 1.4 8V is having some issues...
Sometimes from Cold the car can take 5 - 10 seconds to fire up and i'm not sure what could be the issue.
This Morning the car wouldnt fire up straight away and when I finally managed to get it to start it made it about 50 metres before it died in 2nd gear.
When I tried to restart it took a few attempts and the clock and my head unit reset itself.
Sometimes the car does fire first time and in general seems to drive fine.
