Hoping someone can point me in the right direction with this, I will try and explain as best I can.
Recently I went on a long run and the car was absolutley fine. When I got back however I was reversing around the driveway and the car kept stalling. I took out again then and there and it was fine when driving.
Since then Ive taken it out a couple of times and when I slow right down, take the foot of the accelator and dip the clutch the car nearly (and sometimes actually does) stalls. Sometimes the revs just drop as if its about to cut out then revs back up itself as if its compensating.
I will try and take it out again over the weekend and get a better description of the problem but generally it seems to be when slowing right down and dipping the clutch it seems stutter and almost stall.
I dont if this is significant and Im sure its only a coincidence but on that long journey I put BP Ultimate fuel in as I couldnt find a shell garage as I usually put in V-Power. I have since used all the Ultimate and filled up with V-Power so I dont think thats the problem as its still doing it.
The only other thing of significance is that I adjusted the accelator cable (to take out the slack) but I'm sure I took the car out after I did that and didnt notice any problem on that particular journey. Ive adjusted the cable back to where it was and still getting the problem.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
