Strange Juddering Tamora!!

[lukesr]

My Tamora seems to have developed a strange juddering. When first start her up and pull away it feels a bit like dodgy clutch control or I’m pulling away in 3rd, the car goes all stop start and then usually stalls unless i rev it up. It’s all a bit odd; after it’s warmed up it runs absolutely fine. Anyone got any ideas?

I 'kind of' get that.. it can stall and lose revs.. never really thought it a major issue as it's only happens when it's cold (first few minutes max)
I will be watching this thread with interest.

Check the idle speed - it should be 850-950rpm. Mine has been 450-500, and it stalls every time I start it (but in the process of being fixed).

My T350 has had an issue with the crank sensor becoming contaminated. It results in the car hesitating and juddering as you described which is actually quite un-nerving. It does clear itself after a short time. Dealer said that the sensor was becoming contaminated with small particles of debris from the clutch which is in the process of being replaced.

Might be one to get checked although hopefully its not this!
