Okay. So ive just been out in my car, and it judders. In 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. I washed the car before and was thinking its because of the wet. But i dont know.
I could ask my dad to look at it, but im gna have to learn myself one day, so any ideas why?
thanks x

common problem with saxo's, if you have deep pockets just go to your local citroen dealer but if your on budget just take it to a regular mechanical garage and say you need your idle control valve changing and new map sensor! then see how the car drives, mine drove like brand new when had mine done!

I changed my air filter and plugs today, and the juddering has stopped completely. Drives 100% better now. :y:
