Just spoke to my mom today and found out that her 1.2 Opel Corsa with easytronic was in the workshop for failing to start. Apparantly there was excessive carbon buildup. This is the 3rd time this problem has come up. I'm not too sure if the buildup was in the engine or in the cat as the same warning light alerts us to the problem, with it either blinking or just staying on depending on the problem (it has done both). Now my mom always pumps 95 octane shell (min 91) and according to the mech, its not the first time this has happenned with shell fuels. Has this happenned to anyone else? If so what fuel were you running on, and what make and model is your car? I've asked my mom to pump either BP or Mobil as i had no issues with both these fuels on my previous car (megane). Any other advice would be most appreciated too. Btw, I can't do any checking myself as I'm currently in aust while my mom is in singapore
