Youve probably all heard this a million times but my 4.5 has started running ropey at just over 2k revs. Juddering and coughing. I know they do this a bit anyway but the car has had new HT leads and a full service about 2000 miles ago so I expect the mixture is ok etc.

If you nail it all the way, you don't feel the problem.

Any ideas?
