    Hi all,
    Looking for a bit of help with a problem i'm having with the OH's reanult clio. Recently just passed the nct with no problems.
    However the last wk or so it has began to stutter when at a standstill and when cruising in gear, although when in full acceleration the car runs perfectly normal. I've givin it a service changed the oil filters and plugs etc but nothing changed. I was hoping it was the plugs. I was then thinking it could be the coils but that would show up on the dash. So now i haven't a clue what it could be.

    Anyone got some ideas or has came across it before?

    What year and engine size is it , coil packs won't always throw on the engine light.
    More than likely coil packs so much so motor factors stock them.

    On the older Clio the throttle body had a sensor on it the did similar things but mainly shudder and drop power when idle and sometimes with driving a sort drop in power for like 1 second. This would not set off check engine light but would register the fault on computer.
