Hi
I have a Punto evo sporting and this morning i got to work and sat in my car for 10 mins with the engine running. Suddenly it started juddering and the engine management light started flashing. I did the 20 minute journey to work fine and didn't feel like it was driving any different than it usually does. Then on my journey home it was fine again till i reached my house, then the juddering started again and the light came back on. Now it seems to have gone down hill and I have another warning light and the car doesn't really seem to want to move in 1st or 2nd, there is also a smell with it too. It seems really low in revs and like its miss firing (i no nothing about cars just the only thing i can describe) My car has only done 20,000 miles. Being a girl i don't want to take it to a garage with no idea what is wrong as i don't want to end up getting ripped off.
Anyone got any idea what is wrong or has this happened with anyone's car?
thanks
