John Cooper Works Hardtop 1.6L Jcw Turbo

  • Manual transmission
  • 70,000 miles

This car is going to drive me crazy. Bought as a 5 year old Florida car, we've had it six months. So far, it's had a broken hatch latch, bad turbo oil line, leaking cam cover, leaking oil filter adapter, bad #4 coil pack plus the problem we have now. If the car sits a few days to a week, it acts like it wants to start, then dies and will not restart. It smells of gas, and acts flooded. In a few hours, it will start and run as if nothing happened. It's a real problem, because it will happen like if you park it at an airport and go on a trip, you never know if it will or won't start.
