Noticed this more & more recently. if my car is warm and ticking over its fine but will have the odd hicup in the idle - like its going to stall - and then return to normal. This happens every say...5 - 10 seconds. And if i have low revs and apply power - not shit loads just coming off tight round about - its will do the same...Any ideas? maybe a oxygen sensor? dont want to go forking out to fix the wrong things!

sounds like my problem when my fuel pump broke too but I don't think it is a common fault
