Hello my problem with my ford 1.3 fiesta finness 2003. 38,000 miles on clock. is when iam sat at lights etc, theres a sound from the engine. It sounds like a minor cough, had it for a few days now. Car pasted its MOT last saturday with a service. During the service they carried out these tasks, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs x4, and engine oil. Theres no lights showing from dash board,when iam sat at lights etc. Can anyone help please.

Can you be more specific, is it only when idling or do you have any other performance related issues

did the garage set the spark plug gap up as most plugs need the gap setting which would cause the car to coff also check the leads are on the plugs correctly by just pushing them on alittle more but not to much force is required
