Engine Judder

Guys,

Noticed my car doing this over the past few days.

When cold accelerating in 2nd and hitting around 2 1/2 thousand revs the car judders. Gives off a tshh tshh type of sound and carrys on fine. After the first instance does not return until left for a fair few hours or the next day.

1.9 sporting is the car in question.

Anyone shed some light on this issue?

Re: Engine Judder

No more like a hesitation where the revs drop. Id say more along the lines of a misfire.

Tis very bizzare and intermittant at best. Like I said did it when I first picked her up and has been fine up untill about a week ago. Prob a sensor playing silly buggers

Re: Engine Judder

my meggy 225 did this, but never got around to finding out what it was, just put it down to crappy fuel.

the only fix i found to work was to sell it and buy a GP Sporting. haha
