Hi,

This problem has started to occur more frequently.

When it's cold and i've literally just started the car a few minutes earlier. Ill be sitting at a set of traffic lights then ill pull away and the car will not go over 5mph!

It will stay like this for a good 5/10 secs then it'll take off and be fine. It only does it once when the engine is cold and has never done it more than once in the same day.

Any suggestions?

Blockage in the inlet, air filter ect, Plugs, HT leads...........not really sure tbh but hazard a guess

I thought this too, the airbox is clean, the filter is new.

The plugs are new and there's no miss fire so i was leaning away from leads and the coil but i do have spares so will test them out.
