The corsa has been playing up for a while now. Thought it was having a paddy at first because she only got drove every other day. But no.

On start up, its really lumpy and sounds like wank spluttering away but it only loses probably 50 (fifty) RPM :s

After a while it'll drive fine.
Any ideas?

EGR valve sticking? Mine does the same, infact actually runs rough and cuts out. Took mine off last night and found it particially seized, now blanked and runs better.

Thanks for replies.
The icv and egr are both new and only some 5/6k old if that!

Is it misfiring when you rev it after just starting it? Are you loosing coolant? Just wondering if the head gasket is on its way out letting coolant into the bore over night and then on start up its causing it to misfire??

Crank sensors normally either stop working or break down when hot

Plugs been changed recently?

Maybe worth starting it from cold, have it run lumpy for a min or so or however, switch off and pull the plugs and see what they say.
