yeah it sounds like its going to fall to bits but then once i started car and drove home it was running normaly when i pulled up so any ideas?

Its probably just full of gunk. Mine was the same so i removed if from the car and took it apart to give it a good clean out. Put it back together and it runs like new now. Saves forking out for a new one as they're pretty pricey as far as i remember.
