Does this sound like completely messed up spark plugs or is my coil going?
back firing to start with and juddering at low- medium revs only does it when the engine is warm.....
then a couple of days later was overtaking a car and basically almost killed myself cause my car decided to almost stop acclerating though the engine still sounded normal. So now sometimes when i pull out of junctions the car sometimes decides to accelrate very slowly then suddenly after a few seconds kicks back to bein normal.......
yesterday was driving down motorway and the yellow engine warning light thingymabob came on now when the car is idling if u go to the back of the car sounds really odd like the zorst isnt blownin properly under the bonnet sounds normal though
any ideas?
im thinkin bout selling it cause drivin me crazy with all the problems 
cheers
