this is the story..

last night went to my sister inlaws house went to kmart then filled up as the car was almost empty filled it up with bp 98, drove back to there house 5min drive then parked the car. started the car and drove off 30sec's down the road the car started to play up at the lights. It was like it was running on 5 cylinders.

pulled over and flashed the computer with my tune, did the same thing, flashed it again (same problem). disconneted the battery same sh*t again. tried flashing it back to stock it started but the idils were funny, slowly took it back home.

next moring the car didnt wont start, motor turns but not actually running.

im taking it to the wog monday morning but ill would like to know if any1 has had this same problem as me...

it might be the petrol it could be something else... let me know if u have any suggestions thanks guys.

Had to be said though. Flash the standard tune back in then the edited tune check to see if you have any error codes.

Do you have a manual and were you playing arouind with it before this happened?

If you have a manual and perhaps revved the engine out excessively, the car will often shut itself off, even when your still driving it.

This also happened to me. It didnt start immediately after this happened and when it did, its idle quality was that of a V8 equiped with a massive solid cam!

As soon as I got it home, I re-flashed it and it was fine..

Someone had to do it... Sly just beat us to it..!!

However:-

Be careful if wog drops something on the floor and asks you to pick it up..

But he will find the problem for sure.....

your fuel could be contaminated??

I had similar problems a while back, car was running like cr*p, so I took it to ford who found that the fuel was contaminated. (Bp in Doveton).

Luckily for me Ford fixed my car under warranty and eversince I keep all my fuel receipts.

Hope your's is a minor issue mate.
