Over the past 2 days my car has cut out when started. It starts then cuts out after a couple of secs. The car with spanner symbol then flashes. It starts and keeps runnin on the 2nd or third attempt.

Anyone have any ideas??

Many thanks in advance:biggrin:

Start with some new spark plugs, then try a coil pack. TBH though mate, mine does this now and again but only after shes been on a very long run, when shes very hot I guess.
