   Hey guys Ive got a problem with my VTS, every morning when i start to drive out my street it starts to splutter and cough it will do it for about 2-4 seconds then it will be fine... also i filled it up yesterday to half a tank and its managed to drink through quater of a tank after doing only 30 miles... it will also cut out sometimes... could this be a faulty lambda sensor?
   
   
   Any help appreciated cheers Lee

   I'd try the coolant temperature sensor first. ICV too

   mine does something similar, but kinda hesitates for a couple of seconds. will try the coolant temp sensor and see what the result is!
