Hi all.

Just bought a 2005 1.4 TDCI Fiesta and I'm pleased with it. However, when in 5th gear and accelerating very gently around the 45-50mph mark, I sometimes feel a judder through the throttle pedal (or through the dash if my knee is resting up against it). It goes away if I take my foot off the throttle or press it down further. It doesn't happen in any other gear and the judder isn't that violent that passengers notice it.. Any ideas what this could be before it potentially becomes a worse problem? No smoke coming out of the exhaust and no hesitation in accelerating.

Fuel pressure rail sensor? EGR valve?
