Hi every one, love my little almera 2.2 dci but am having problems when I start my car. It will not tick over an rest at adle it just bounces,so every time I have to pull up at a junction it will cut out.Drives me crazy.One she's warmed up she's not as bad.I've had her at the garage an had the laptop on but no faults have been found,I was hoping some one can help me point the garage man in the right direction as to whats wrong,thanks for reading

Hi, most likely suction valve problem.
