Hi

Hoped i might get some advice on this here. I bought an F430 F1 yesterday and took it for a spin last night. I parked it up outside a friends for 10 minutes and when i started it again the engine had minimal power. It struggled to do even 40 mph. Then when i had to stop at traffic lights, it didn't even have enough power to pull away so it stalled. I mananged to start it and get going again and it crawled along, then after a few mintues it all went back to normal again!!

Has anyone every heard of this happening before and know what it could be?

Thanks for any advice.

No expert, but I think your car needs to visit the dealer it could be anything.

Get a diagnostic done and they shoulod be able to tell you the problem.

Good luck, hope it gets fixed.
