Re: 406 judders at low revs

Did you say "low" or "high" revs??


9,000 (nine thousand) is very HIGH revs for a car (diesel or petrol)!!

I assume that it is a "typo" & you meant 900 (nine hundred)!!



IMHO, this is about the practical lower limit for a lot of cars (diesel or petrol).



Although diesel engines usually are regarded a lower-revving, you have to remember that modern diesels have been developed for modern cars & are a bit more highly tuned than good old-fashion "Tractor-Engines"!

Sorry 900 revs, the car rocks like a baby. Just adding a little throttle taking it off tick over. At 1000 revs it stops ????
