Run the engine and look for leaks at li`nes injectors etc.If not that then your ego sensor sounds cactus and may need changing.

I had the same symptoms when I first bought my AU, which I got fixed under warranty, I am no mechanic, but I was told it was the fuel pressure regulator was not working properly, squirting too much fuel into the injectors.
After that was fixed, that went away, but to this day, my car sucks fuel like crazy when its cold. :-) From what I have read, thats just the warm up routine. Its fine once its warm. Hope that give you some help. |
