Hi Everyone,

Despite my last ford randomly cutting out on me on corners I nevertheless bought another. I just love my fords ahaha

So the problem has been around a while but this morning was definitely the worst it has ever been.

Upon starting the ignition my car (Ford fiesta zetec s 1.6 Petrol 2009 Mk7) starting revving erratically and it felt like the whole car was shaking.

I pushed some revs on myself and it seemed to calm it down. No problems whatsoever when driving however, only on ignition.

Im not sure if it is worth mentioning but earlier on in the year i got an 'Engine Malfunction' popup twice on my visual display thing. However, as always the case, when took to the garage there was no fault codes and wiping the few unreadable codes fixed the problem and it has never came back since.

Any help is appreciated as I rely on this car everyday to drive an hour to work.

Thanks to all
