Car is juddering and engine management light flashes

Hi can any1 help, My punto has been running fine until weve had a bit of
sunshine, sounds funny i no but when it was warm the last couple of days
(just when the car has been parked in the sun) when ive started my car, it
started juddering and the engine management light started flashing, i still
drove the car and a few minutes later, the light stopped flashing and the car
ran quite smooth again. It has not happened today as the weather has been
quite cool. Could that just be a coinsidence. Thanx to anybody who can help.
