Hey Dom
The problem with my car was that the dealer just set my cams wrong but the dealer and seat swore there was nothing wrong
Since then they have said that because it's a variable timed engine it don't make any difference lol.
The part I'm talking about is actually part of the variator the big aluminium bit on the right hand side of your engine, this houses the chain that drives your cam shafts and in there is a spring and pin mechanism which is suppossed to lock in place on choke , but the springs can become weak or broken.
It's just another thing to rule out mate.
Didnt someone also have a broken cam shaft sprocket which have similar issues to what you are experiencing?
Keep your chin up buddy I went through sh*t for 3 1/2 years to find my issue.

Haha that's reassuring to know lol :sick:
But a good few things to check there Dom... hope they help.

It going in to get sorted on Saturday. Hope it isnt the variator, over £300 just for that little bit of aluminium :surprised:

Hope you get it sorted mate , and it puts the smile back on your face :-)
Nothing worse than trying to find a bloody fault with no fault codes , I'm sure it will be something simple,
Keep us updated mate
