Hi everyone,
I have a 1999 Vauxhall Corsa that when I turn the ignition it sort of splutters and it does start, but sort of shudders before it's fine.
I find that if the car is full of people it's worse, if it cuts out, the battery light goes red, that happens only really when i don't trun the key that hard..
Any ideas??
thanks

Unfortunately it could be one of a hundred things.
If its otherwise running fine though, chances are its a sensor or a relatively simple fix. Any local small garages near you?0 -

never mind, will take it to some tomorrow0 -

Try a different one? Is there no one can recommend someone decent and reasonably priced in your area?
I'd a similar problem on my Alfa. Here was a breakdown of the charges if it helps
Read ECU for error code - £30
Part (Air flow meter) - £90
Labour (2 hrs) - £600
