    Default No power pulling off when cold??

    As it says, when the car is cold it dosent have any power.

    Mostly it will stall at the junction unless i rev it hard.

    Once it has run for a couple of minutes its ok!!

    Where do I start??

    I have had this and it was the clutch pedal switch. You still need to plug it in and make sure though.

    Yes, its the EGR!!! grrrrrr

    The seals have gone round the actuator and its cooked the motor.

    Had it all apart and cleanned it, but it isnt going to work!

    Its been making a whistling sound for months and the garage told me the exhaust manifold was blowing?!?!
