Car jumpy when accelerating / setting off.

[pjdouglas]

Hi,

I have a DS3 Plus which has just come out of warranty. The car being a little over 3 years old.

Just recently the car has started to struggle when setting off and picking up speed where it judders slightly. This isn't all the time but it is frequent.

Once the car has picked up speed it is fine.

I initially thought it might be down to poor fuel quality as it seemed to start after I fuelled up at a petrol station I had not visited before.

However I have dismissed this as I am now on a fresh tank of fuel since then and the problem is still present.

I have had the car 12 months and it is the first time I have owned a Citroen so I am not sure if this is a common problem with this model of car.

Would appreciate any advice.

Thank you.

Its a 1.6 petrol. Forgot to mention that its just had its interim service a few weeks ago.

Wondered if it could be a spark plug issue since these would not of been changed with an interim.

Thanks Paul
