Hi
My 2.4 puma seems to have a similar intermittent problem. Twice now, after being unused for a few days has been difficult to start, runs rough as though it's firing on 3 then clears & seems fine. Local guy, having spoken to LR bod is talking new ECU which have apparently been modified since 2009. ????? ££££££££ !!!!!!!! Any miracle workers out there? Luv you |

I can't possibly see how leaving the car for an extended period and then having an issue could be related to the ecu (unless its related to low battery / charge)
air getting into the fuel line seems fair more likely to me. |

SB shame your so far away or I'd have a look, I'd be surprised if the ecu is faulty to be honest. It sounds like they are clutching at straws a little.

Grockle, when was the fuel filter changed last ? Have you checked for water in the water trap ?
