Engine Diagnosis light on!

Post by froggy »

Hi, my S2 Xantia, while travelling to work this morning(40 miles) the car 'cut out' four times and the Engine Auto Diagnosis light came on and stayed on! If I leave it for a few minutes it starts with a little turning over, just like it's starved of fuel! it will run a few miles then 'cut out'. I changed the fuel filter around 500 miles ago. any help gratefully received, Terry. :?

You need a Lexia session Terry. Easiest way of determining what may be the problem and saves an awful lot of poke 'n' hope ;)
