Hey everyone!
Recently done an oil change and decided I would chuck in some injection cleaner in the petrol aswell (Not redex but similar). Since then the cars been a bit iffy at start up. I used 10w 40w oil instead of 5w 40w after taking the advice of the guy in the shop as the cars done 75000+ miles.
1st time (Two days ago):
Tried to start it and the starter motor just ran on that bit too long so turned the key back and tried again. This time it started but after a prolonged starter motor turn.
2nd time (Today):
Tried to start it and again there was a prolonged starter motor period and then it started up but was really lumpy. Car/Engine was vibrating a bit with the lumpiness and it sounded much louder than usual. Turned it off and on again and it was lumpy again until I revved it at 2000ish rpm for about 20 secs. After that it was fine and when I started it up again at the gym 2 hours later it started like normal...
Any suggestions?
It has been running so nice aswell for about 2 months!
