Our answer:
Hi Sheneen,
You've not told us which engine your car has, but there is a well known problem with the 1.6-litre petrol unit that might apply to your car where there's a poor connection for the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor, requiring new sensor, adaptor kit and sleeves. Well worth mentioning that to your mechanic and having it investigated.
