Blocked fuel filter? Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Sounds a bit like the hesitation problem but I thought that was only on 2011 models. Certainly these cars are susceptible to fuel filter problems and in my experience they don't always log fault codes. When was it last changed? 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

You shouldnt need to put the car into gear to get the stop start to restart the engine, just pressing the clutch pedal should do it, and you say it only loses power from 1st and 2nd gear so its ok from there upwards, and coming back doing downward changes?

The fuel filter should have been changed in April as part of the service although I will check on that ,the eco stop /start would not restart the car by pressing the clucth pedal at all meaning I had to turn the car off and on again ,the two software updates its had at statstones was supposed to have fixed the eco stop/start proplem and the gear change so far all they have done is fix the eco so that works or as so far but not the proplem with the power proplem between 1st and 2nd which tas returned after 4 days of having the 2nd software update to fix it . |

There is a definite procedure to go through, I haven't done one but there are instructions on the forum. If you don't do it right your car won't start. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
