When I got the car 10 days ago, when the fuel was low the first night, when I went out it spluttered for a couple of seconds then cleared itself, for the past week, its been a dream. Had an oil, oil filter and fuel filter change on Friday.
Drove 80 miles on the motorway yesterday, never missed a beat, went out for dinner last night, no problems, drove out to the shops today, carried for a walk and some lunch, then on the way home decided to get petrol from my usual garage, it was kind of low, the light came on just as I pulled into the petrol station.
So chucked super in, started up all fine, drove 50 metres to the road, went to pull out, no power, no response to throttle pedal, car shook, then came to life, tootled down the road very slowly, got to some lights, thought it was ok, but then coughed again and kid of bunny hopped across the junction, nearly stopped on other side, then it came (semi) right again, carried on driving, anyway, several near stall moments, no power, car shaking for the 1 mile home.
Left car to sit for 10 minutes, then went back out, seemed ok, then after 20 or so seconds, started faltering again, no malfunction thrown, my code reader came up with nothing. Lifted bonnet, engine smooth again, then started coughing and shaking, like a misfire on 1 or more cylinders, but again, no codes, no EML.
Had a quick google and similar issues sound like a CPS, but as I am not getting a code it's hard to determine if that is correct.
Any other ideas before I start freaking out?
One thing to note, is that both times this has happened has been low fuel, just odd how the first time it cleared itself in a couple of seconds, but this time it is more persistent.
