1.4i sports, and no light managerment is on....
Sometimes it starts straight away no problem and sometimes it just cut off when i start.
Second problem is when i am driving along on the A road or M1 I speed up and when i slow down the steering moves slighly on to the left side? what could be the problem there ?
I am going to take it to the garage but I want some advice so when I go to the garage I wanna know what I am talking about when I speak to the engineer.

Management light is the little orange light on the dash, it comes on with the ignition then should go off when you start the car. Then shouldnt come on when you are driving along. If it comes on the ECU stores a fault code and when you take it to a garage they can then read this code if they have the diagnostic equipment.
But TBH i am not familiar with the 1.4 engines and faults, someone else may be able to help. Sorry
