First signs of a problem?
« on: 16 February 2008, 19:06 »
Started car at 5 today to leave work, baring in mind it was cold. Started first time straight away as always and drove of fine, but when i dipped the clutch to turn at a junction, it seemed to drop the revs a bit of far almost to stall, then it picked them up. Just didnt feel right. Once it warmed up it was fine. Maybe im worrying about nothing. But with all these idle problems maybe it is? :S

Just didnt feel right. Im off out tonight with the lady so i shall see if it continues...... :/
