Low speed juddering

Post by garethdeb » Mon Feb 04, 2013 7:47 pm

Hi folks
Only drive the X weekends now and this weekend I noticed a lot of judder at slow speed, like the clutch is dragging? Little bit of engine wobble at idle in N too and idling at around 500 rpm although cant say what it normally idles at.
Am I looking at the beginnings of a big bill?
Cheers all
Gareth

If it's a diesel (can't see your sig on tapatalk), it sounds like out is fuel related, maybe injectors.

Sorry folks. 3.0d auto 51 plate. It actually stalled when cold yesterday when I put it into reverse and gave it some gas. Never done that before.
Regards
