Hey everyone,

My C70 has been shuddering when I give it some boot, but only when cold, once fully warmed up it's fine, now the engine management light has come on

any ideas?

Anyone got a code reader and live near southend?

why are you booting it when it is cold?

You need to get the DTCs read (diagnostic trouble codes) and take it from there - plus learn some mechanical sympathy.

Symptoms could indicated MAF sensor, BCS or fueling issue.

Well I suppose booting is the wrong word, applying a little power at anything over 2,000 odd rpm and I get the shuddering.
