   This has got worse recently. Basically the car feels like its dying, jolts back and forwards, judders erratically, loses a lot of power and then drives fine again. This happens at least once a day.
   
   Also the car judders quite badly when movin off and also a little bit into second gear. This happens almost everytime but sometimes worse than other times.
   
   Recently done:
   
   - Clutch
   - Fuel Filter
   - Cleaned throttle body
   - Coil Pack
   - Spark Plugs
   - Battery
   
   What else can I try?
   
   Thanks, andy.

   i'd check the condition of the spark plugs, looking for a golden brown deposit on them. If black or moist, change again and see how it goes. Maybe lambda sensor over fuelling?
