Having abit of trouble starting my corsa, it has the x12xe engine, doesnt matter if its cold or warm, it will crank and crank, maybe slightly catch but then die again, but it starts ok if you give it 1/4 throttle and then turn the key, when it does start the choke doesnt seem to be on, just goes straight to 800 rpm
getting no warning lights either
Thanks in advance

was serviced 1 month ago, was just the oil and filter.
@Fattaff yea the temp guage is bang on, works fine, when the engine has been just run (Warm) its still the same.
Yea a mechanic said he could be the crank sensor or MAF
