sirichmond Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Hello all, Yesterday set off to Thirsk first real drive since re-map last week, been driving in town all week. All was going well when all of a sudden the car started to kangaroo and stalled at 40mph. Fault cleared and all was well for rest of journey. On way home today did it again and now everytime I start car got to rev for first couple of mins or the engine dies, Ok when you get it up to speed. Also when you back off the throttle it feels a little, juddery/kangarooy. Any advice will be appreciated. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 assuming a diesel since a remap ? if you never had this problem before I think you know where to begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I think that's the probable cause because it started when they did that. if not they'll probably do a free diagnostic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirichmond Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I hope it is but why would it run fine for a week and then suddenly develop this prob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I don't know but that's the first place I'd look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
