I've been experiencing a stuttering or rough running engine in my Vauxhall Astra lately. It seems to happen more frequently when the engine is cold. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?
ReplyIt sounds like you may have a problem with your ignition system. The first thing I would check is the spark plugs and wires. Make sure they are in good condition and replace them if necessary. If that doesn't solve the issue, it could be a problem with the fuel injectors or the fuel filter. It's best to take your car to a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and repair.
I had a similar issue with my Astra and it turned out to be a faulty EGR valve. If you've noticed any loss of power or strange smells coming from the exhaust, this could be the culprit. I would recommend getting it checked out by a professional as soon as possible to avoid any further damage to your engine.
I've had some experience with this issue in my own Astra and it turned out to be a clogged air filter. When was the last time you changed your air filter? If it's been a while, it could be restricting airflow to your engine and causing the stuttering. Try replacing it and see if that improves the issue.
