Just bought a 182 but having problems

[aladinsane]

Hi eveyone. just last week bought a clio 182 from a quite respectable garage and it was fine for the first few days but the last 5 days it struggled to start at least twice a day. It starts for a about 2 seconds makes a grumble then dies. it then does start after and drives fine. anybody have any ideas what the problem could be?
​thanks

Id just take it to the garage and tell them to fix it.

Take it back to the garage. After the last 4 weeks ive had with my'n, wish I had got it from a garage.

i was going to but i found the invoice out and at the bottom its basically says sold as seen and that its been tried tested and inspected by the buyer.

Take it back anyway, the garage has to honour a minimum 3 month warranty don't they?

the garage is quite a distance away. dont just wanna rock up and not have a leg to stand on. tried phoneing but no answer so ive sent an email. so hopefully they will fix it or its more money to shell out

No such thing as sold as seen unless it's a private sale.
