Judders!!

Post by craggy999 »

I have a 1.2 N reg corsa spin and all is well apart from one thing.

The car sometimes judders, like its about to stall. Its very noticeable when im braking to come to a stop. Its a lot worse when i have all my electrics on too (lights, heater, radio and especially the rear window heater). I dont this its anything to do with the battery as i lost my keys a while back so it was stood for 5 weeks with the alarm on and it started first time so the battery is fine.

Anyone know what could be wrong here and if i could solve the problem without having to take it to a costly garage.

im newish to corsa's but what your saying is that it struggles to get back to idle?
if so there is a valve that controls air flow when you let of the throttle (unsure of name)
check this as it could be sticking or buggered! this happened on my mates fiesta and he removed the valce and used a tube for a QUICK fix

hope this helps
