Hi,
Did over 1,000 miles to Holland and back.... just got home and the car stalled. ( wasn't I lucky?) Wouldn't start..... left it over 2 hours..... it did start. Next day, it started.... went a short distance and turned off the engine... a few miutes later, it wouldn't start. Floored the throttle, turned it over for a good few seconds... it started. Next day, same thing happened, flooring the throttle did get it going. BUT, a couple of minutes later, the car simply conked out as I pulled up to some traffic lights... this time, it wouldn't start by any means. Three hours later, it restarted. HOWEVER, it ran rough and was quite smokey when decellerating/ accelerating. THEN, only a few miles on, it conked again when slowing down at a roundabout. I towed it home this time. A "Scangauge 11" device seems to brifly show "FRZD" as a fault code, but then says that no codes are detected? Any help, please, as to what is wrong?... Thanks, friends! ...( I recently purchased this car for reliability, so this has come as quite a shock!)
