car juddering and cut out

[sayer88]

Hi everybody, slight issue with glanza this morning. Got up lifted bonnet to do general checks before a long motorway drive all fine, started up fine drove about a mile down the road stopped at traffic lights pulled away and she started stuttering pulled over and she idled fine so drove off got about 100yrds further Then started again pulled over again this time she cut out. Turned key took about 8-10seconds to actually start up which it's never done before drove it home ok switched her off turbo timer kicked in and she ticked over perfectly fine. My only thought is when I lifted the bonnet a fair bit of water ran into the back of the engine bay maybe the water was shorting something out. Any advise and help would be great thanks. Dan

Try the spark plug holes mate. Spray some WD40 down there.

Check your battery terminals they could be lose had this problem on my old evo witch would make it cut out! boost leak could also do the same! ;-)
