Hi all, my matiz has recently developed a jerky/jumpy running, this is hit and miss as it sometimes happens and then it doesnt the next time I drive, then again it can do it, stop and do it a few minutes later in the smae journey. My friend says its my exhaust but the fact its not a constant thing makes me query this, could something be going?
If anyone has any answers I'd be chuffed to hear them as its really annoying me as i cant put my finger on the problem. Oil, coolant, brake fluid etc are all A ok.
Cheers
Martin
hello,
back to basics first - check spark plugs and fuel filter and replace if necessary
and then get yourself back here and till us what had happened...
Cheers, I've got it booked in the garage next tuesday, so i'll update you then.

Number 2 lead braking down was a common problem

Sorted it now guys, I changed the Spark plugs and HT Leads and it seems to have fettled it.
Does anyone know where I can get a second key for my car from? When I bought it, it only had 1 key with it.
try your local key cutters as a lot opf them have the equipment to read and code keys
