Hi im looking for some help here, my car an 02 9n 1.4 16v Sport 105k fails to start sometimes?? Ive had it serviced new plugs oil and filters the mechanic said its starting fine. Got it back and it started fine the first 3-4 times and then when I tried again it struggled to start the engine fired up and juddered and cut out? then it started turning over and turning over and not firing? Then I stopped took the keys out and tried again...started after a few turns of the engine and juddered I put some power down and it fired up to 7 thousand spitting if you know what I mean? Then its fine after that? The starter motor before it went to the garage was whining I was told that it was sticking? But now it semms to have stopped whining? Please help its doing my nut in and im thinking about getting shut of it now!! Thanks in advance :D
