Hi there can anybody give me some idea as to my problem before I take it into the garage on Tuesday? Yesterday I had trouble starting my car (Ceed 1.6 ls 07) when it finally started it drove like a bag of ****. If it wasn't jeking like a good un it had no power when I put the trottle down, then would speed up and then againstart jeking around. I did fill up with petrol on Friday night and have driven only 15 miles before this problem started.

Sounds like contaminated fuel to me.

Well my Ceed has just come back from the garage. I only took it in on Thursday. Waited until it was running bad so that they could hear it. It was an intermittent fault. Any how it turned out to be a faulty "crank sensor". I am sure they thought I was the crank when I took it to them at first. Anyhow job done. It drove home ok. Garage was good, I was expecting hassle over the warranty but they never even asked for proof of service history and they only had my first service recorded as I took it else where for the others. Here's hoping for no more problems
