also i forgot to add -
at the smae time the car started running ruff the "battery charge" display on the dash would light up! ive charged the battery and it is still doing this.
a while back, i had a diagnostic check carried out[this was before i cured it the 1st time round] ive since lost the details
but i do remember the technician saying something about my fuel pump + other stuff. he also said the cost of repair would be around £1200!! what the fffff!!!!!!
i desregarded the diagnostic check as i cured it myself after, but the same problem obviously come back.
so regarding your replies - i cannot see a fuel leak! ive had the car idling for a while with no visible signs of leakage.
before i attempt to replace anything does any possibly have an engine bay diagram of where common parts are located? i cant stress enough how little i know about modern engines

also a blown up diagram of the fuel system? this would make it alot easier for me to suss out.
sorry if this is abit much to ask.
this car is driving me nuts
