1600I ( Petrol ) Wifes Car Running Abit Rough When Cold.. :-( 2002

Featured Replies

Hey up.. this Mk1 Octavia has been the best so far! being as our Mk2 is still off the road 3 months later!!!!!!!!!!

 

but today the wife mentioned the car was running rough! 

 

and sure enough I went out later today when it was 4 hours cold and started it up.. 

 

it starts ok but it's ticker over is rough and you have to rev it to pick up..

 

winter is coming and it's set to get colder so any known issues to look for .. I am thinking of changing the plugs as they are cheap enough and poss leads as they are the orginal ones ( not that they are normally an issue I would have thought ) it's a super nice orginal 62000 mile car so not high miles ! 

 

I need any input you got cheers ... if this breaks down then she will have to use my Porsche.... So PLEASE HELP ME FIND A FIX!!!!!!! :-/ 

 

LOL! 

Coolant temp sensor would be my prime suspect.
