#1: judder problem Author: Achillez, Posted: Wed Apr 10, 2013 4:33 pm ---- Hello everyone, I hope someone may be able to help or have some advice.
I've had this problem since having this car, just under a year, when I remove my foot off the accelerater the car Judders, I notice this in all gears. I have noticed the car doesn't judder as bad if at all if I remove my foot while going about 55-60 mph.
At first I did think about engine mount but I'm not convinced anymore, if I put my car in 1st and go about 5mph and take my foot off the pedal it will judder. The car Judders every time you take your foot off the pedal, very bad at low speeds.
Very annoying and I really want to fix this, my car is 2003 xsi 1.6 16v
Thanks

presumably could be bent or distorted dive shaft, inner cv joints.

Exactly my thought, driveshafts up the spout.

I've done just what you've asked me 2, I've tried it in all gears and no judder, just revs as I have my foot still on the accelerator
So this means my Drive shafts are broken? I shall replace both sides and I'll come back with the results.
Many thanks

Outer shafts could be ok.
Good garage should be able to tell you what wants doing.
