Hi, sorry if this topic has been covered on here before, I have looked but can't find anything.
My Fiat Punto 2004 1.2 8 valve "judders" when you take your foot off the gas (it feels like I am in a gear that is to high) I have to dip the clutch, pick the revs up and release the clutch for it to go away or just apply more gas.
This happens at all speeds when I take my foot off the gas.
There is also a slight judder sometimes when starting off in first but not all the time.

I think its engine/fuel related, not clutch.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

That should rule out a throttle body problem then which is a good thing.
How about the engine mountings, especially the one on the rear of the gearbox.....do check that it's intact. (Underneath the car).

Hi John,
Stars perfectly hot or cold.

I have just had a look at the engine mountings and the one at the bottom has seen better days, the others look fine.
I will change it and see if that sorts the problem.

Thanks for your help.
