Hi and welcome to the forum :thumb:
Has the car cut out at all? has the car been running on an almost empty fuel tank? lastly when was it last serviced?

hi,

no its not cut out, just momentarily looses power and recovers. no, it does it all the time no matter how much fuel is in it. it was serviced about 2 months ago, but it was doing it before the serivce and i hoped that something like a filter might cure it.

still hoping for and answer

cheers

Would be worth checking the stepper motor.Also you could try an engine flush,you can get them in halfrauds. this seems to be pretty common (especially with hdi's). Will look into this a bit more and let you know.
