  2. Hey guys / girls.. 1. Well the problem is, when accelerating or staying at a constant speed, car always jerks a little bit (always a lot worse with the air con on) but still does it with it off. 2. Problem only started latly, but when starting off on a hill, its like your in 4th gear... have to ride the clutch like anything to stop stalling. 3. last couple of days, when starting off from cold in first gear, put your foot down and nothing happens... comes right in about 4 or so seconds, but will still jerk a lot. 4. when travelling over a bumpy road car jerks (like you are taking your foot the of the accelerator and then pushing it down hard constantly.. Cheers any adice appreciated.. always like to get ideas before i take it in
