Spluttering when cold

[Adamm.]

Hey, so the clio 182 has developed a splutter. When cold and reving below 2k it's very spluttery, when the revs raise above that it is smooth again. This is both idling and driving, once it was up to temp it was okay again.

I'm gunna book it in at 519 for plugs leads and coilpack anyway I think. Is it likely to be one of these causing it or is there any other suggestions? Cheers.

Sounds like one of those would be the culprit, I'd book it in to sort the issue, but not necessarily do all 3 unless it requires all 3 :]

Although isn't that a common symptom for a fucked Lambda?

I don't mind getting all 3 done for piece of mind tbh, shouldn't cost too much anyway.

I found lamda when doing a search and I don't think it should be that, had that changed about a year and a half ago and also plugged up (checking heavy fuel consumption) last time I was at 519 about 2-3 months ago and was fine. I guess it could still be that but then I'd assume something has caused it to go faulty this quick.

God know what is up now lol, went out just now see how it started and idled. Turned the key and nothing not even trying to turn over (assume starter motor) so I put it in 1st rocked the car back and forward put the clutch in and it fired straight away with no spluttering at all.

Hmm is it possible the starter motor has died and the spluttering is perhpas intermittent? I guess it is, just seems odd they both come on the same day.
