Car sometimes cuts out when hot and won't start for a few minutes. It seems fine after it's done it once and has only ever cut out once when cold.
It only seems to do it if i've been doing short journeys, switching the engine on and off in a short space of time.
Been told on here it sounds like the fuel pump relay, pump itself isn't making any nasty noises.
Went round Kastners yesterday and was told the 850's didn't have a relay issue, only the older 700 and 900's, although they did say it sounded like a relay problem :parhmph:
He suggested booking it in for diognostic check (yeah right) as i could spend £30+vat on a new relay and it may not be that. I've got no codes showing on the underbonnet checker.
I'm gonna find another relay to try first but, where the hell is it?
