lupo_jack Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 My car had recently started juddering at about 3k rpm but sometimes varies, is this misfiring by any chance? And could be solved by changing spark plugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Around 3k youre obviously starting to put more load onto the engine, I reckon you need to check your ignition leads and coil pack connections for corrosion mate. Common fault I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_M Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Is the juddering def the engine or felt through the steering wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corby Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 had a mate service the car; new oil/plugs/air and oil filter, topped tank up and put reddex in and it virtually cured it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace_b Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 My GTI does this, so your doing about 60mph when it kicks in ??I was told it might be a drive shaft, due if you back off the power it stops??Time to check to leads & plugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will anythink bad happen if none are changed in the next 2weeks? :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Doubt it, depending on corrosion it might get steadily worse but if you've only noticed it recently you'll be ok, just annoying isn't it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
