              What do you want pics of this yoke for ?

              There was a shuddering from the engine on light throttle in 4th and 5th, most noticable when off the motorway on A roads. What's wierd is that the speedo stopped working about 30 miles from the boat, when that happened the car started driving brilliantly


              Now, the guy did mention something about the speedo stopping working and he had a guy put a "microchip" in it to fix it. Only thing I can think of is that this was sending some wierd and wonderful signals to the ecu which was causing the shudder.

              She's no S2 thats for sure, but it will serve it's purpose and allow me to take the S2 off the road to have mounts etc replaced and have a good check over. It is slightly more economical than the S2 too having done near 300 miles on just over 1/3 tank!
