Bowlesy,

I happened to be rummaging through ebay and a cab on there described a very similar problem and said it needed the MAP sensors replacing.....whatever they are! Ha!...so thought I'd let you know....may help.

 

Thanks

Avril

I had the same with my D reg cab years ago. Can you bump start the car when it fails to start? Mine did this and replacing the starter solved the issue. I was told they were a bad design and don't always work when warm.
