HI Garry,

 

There was a topic a few days ago titled "Car Jolts" which might contain the answer.

 

But it looks like very something very simple.  Or does it?

Hi Garry

 

The previous post of 'car jolts' that Peter mentioned does sound very similar!

However, with the complexities of today's cars I'm afraid that without a scan of the electronic control unit to look for stored faults codes or live data readings then its pretty much a guessing game.

I would advise the purchase of a cheap scanner which you can get on eBay for around £20 and go from there.

Let us know how you get on Garry
