I have no idea what it is, the tuner reckons that it could be mu exhaust hitting something but its to vigorous for that.has any one had this problem after tuning there T, ant thing will hep thanks guys.regards adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sometimes causes bad shudder...Any other funny problems? If it wasn't doing it before, then it has to be something to do with the tune then. It's probably not coils if it was fine befroe.You're best to take it back to the tuner mate, and get him to sort it out...Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bet would be that you may need to have your plugs re-gapped. Vixen makes a good point as well.Good luck mate,Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll have the answer. I'm sure your mechanic/tuner could sort you out mate.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
