Just to update this incase anybody has a similar problem.

We used the stuff from Halfords as suggested previously in this thread and put a new fuel filter on and emptied that a few times.

Just as we were about resdy to give up on it, it seems to have sorted itself!

Mums been using it for work as normal and a few runs out and it hasnt missed a beat in a few weeks.

WINNER! Good old HTP!

.. But she still wants a new one...

  • Haha. She loves em. I think it might result in that anyway tbh. They just seem a lot of money for what they are. I might book a test drive n see what the fuss is about tbh. 1.5 litre turbo, 3 cyli

  • Oh dont worry. Im a professional at making myself look silly sometimes haha.

  • Yeah I've got to agree that's pretty spot on!

But jt is 8 years old now n she fancies buying something nice with the hard earned. A new polo is at the top of the list atm. With a tsi 90 if i have my way.

Itd be cool. But iv no need for a half powerful car anywah. Itd just take up space aha.

My place of work? Well. I work out of a T5 and im not sure itll fit in there...
