GRAND MOVE + STARTING

Forum: 

My grand move+ auto has an annoying habit. When the weather is cold it fires, runs for 1 second, then the engine management light comes on, and it stops. The colder the weather, the more often it repeats. (current record is 95 times). The daft thing is that it always goes in the end. Other than moving to Spain for the warmth, has anyone had a similar problem AND GOT A CURE? Cheers Jim Worner

Sirion - apparently misfiring on one cylinder

Forum: 

The malfunction indicator light on my partner's Sirion 1.3 auto (not long out of warranty - typical!) came on about ten days ago. She had it checked, & was told that the fault shown was a misfire on no. 2 cylinder. The mechanic who checked it couldn't find any fault in the ignition coils or the cylinder compression, or detect any fault in the engine when running. He changed the spark plugs, & swapped the ignition coil from no. 2 cylinder with another cylinder, & cleared the OBD memory. 4 days later, it came back. Same error, same cylinder.

SIRION BATTERY DISCHARGE

Sirion Rally 2

Have not taken car out at all for over 3 weeks.

Today started first time - drove to the Supermarket - engine off, radio on for about half an hour whilst my better half did a bit of shopping ,attempted to start hardly a click.

Bump started easily enough and back home ok.

Even during the heavy snows and minus 10, starting was no problem .
