Had the car booked in as the car was getting worse. Turned out to be the coil pack and the car is back to normal plus by booking it in got the check engine light turned off. I have had time to read a bit into the OBD reader and it looks like a quality investment so will definately get 1.
On another subject where should I ask about getting the alloys (second hand) from a focus mp3 (16"inch) on the forum????
Thanks
