Had a mate look at the whole car up on a hoist.. a lot of dirt came out of those chassis rails when he high pressure cleaned it! He checked all the oils, coolant, radiator and the timing belt and their all clean or have been recently changed. So no problems there.
I have, however, had the car a week or so now and theres an issue with it stalling. It will crank and turn over fine.. run for two seconds then stall. It will then really struggle to start, and will keep cranking. i gave it 10 minutes, then started it and it grudgingly sprung to lilfe. I asked a mate about this and he said to prime the fuel filter with the push button until it feels stiff. So the next time it stalled, which did not happen every time, i did this and it worked, engine started no worries. This makes me believe it is a fuel pressure fault, or air in the system. Am taking it back to the dealer to get looked at next week? oh and it runs fine and no loss of power is felt when it is actually up and running... what do you guys think the problem could be?
