Hi,
I have a problem with a Seat Arosa 1.4 8V Automatic.
The car is a 2000 W Plate with the engine code AKK. It has done 12000 miles.
The car has been in the garage numerous time, but nothing is coming up on diagnostics and when the car does stall in the garage it starts straigh back up. The car stalls about 2 times per hour if left to sit and idle.
Basically the car will stall at idle or cut out at any speed intermittanty. When it cuts out on the move it sometimes restarts, othertimes it dies all together with the oil pressure and battery light bleeping. The stall is very sudden, not juddery
When the car does cut out it often restarts straight away and other times it takes a minute until it restarts.
When it does not restart it just turns over at normal speed, The Tacho doe not move from 0 rpm. I checked for spark and there is no spark.
When it does work it drives perfectly fine throughout the rev range, no hesitation.
The stalling happens more frequently when coming to a stop or in traffic.
Some journeys are perfectly fine with problems at all. The problem seems to only occur when the engine has reached operating temperature.
The following have already been changed:
Fuel Pump
Coil Pack
The following have been checked for function:
Fuel Pump Relay.
Immobiliser
Earthing Cables
Throttle Body Cleaned and breather pipes
The Engine Management light is not lighting up, although I believe it may be faulty as it doesn't light up when the car is first switched on.
I hope someone can help.
