Hi guys, it's been a while, losing a bit of love for my LCR having paid out over £1000 in maintenance repairs I'm starting to get irritated with its small issues so now to sort them or get shut of it :/... basically when I am driving along nice and steady maybe 40mph in 5th (about 2k rpm) I get almost a judder it doesn't slow me down or anything but I can feel as if it's pulling back for some reason... also when changing gear sometimes usually 1st to 2nd going back on throttle slightly causes it to jump so to speak, it kinda shudders and then gets going again. Should mention I can't feel any of this if I am driving hard so I have no idea what it could be...
Just replaced plugs (issue was there before) had change of oil. I'm going to check air filter as I haven't had it out for around 18 months so maybe could be related? Also no lights on dash will check for codes and let you know my findings but so far as I'm aware there shouldn't be anything. I have checked the boost hoses briefly but can't see anything like a leak at least not obvious.
Sorry I can't supply any better information but it's hard to explain what happens and it the shudder when changing only happens every so often. Very confusing and irritating me now I want to love the car again I really do but it's hard work especially this last month.
Thanks in advance guys and sorry for the mass of text
Maybe worth noting is the idle has always been iffy... sometimes it's just fine but sometimes (had it vagcom) and it idled at 760rpm but would occasionally drop down to 730rpm then back up to 760... this can be felt like a shaking in the car always done it in the nearly 2 years of having it and just put it down to this is how this car is lol...
Thanks again!
