I have had a problem with my 4 over the last few days. It has got a hell of a lot colder here over the last week or so, and the car runs like an absolute pig. It starts and ticks over fine, but when on the motorway, especially on the approach to tunnels, it starts to cut out really badly, almost coming to a stop, but if you let the clutch in, it ticks over ok. You can get over the problem to a point by juggling the choke, but it still runs really badly. It is a Spanish model as well. Are these cars prone to having a carb icing problem in cold countries, or is this more like an internal problem with the carburettor? I did not have the tube that connects the air filter to the exhaust, but have fitted one now, and this seems to have cleared the problem up somewhat. Thanks in advance for any answers!
