Default Help with 2.0 Tdci

Hi all

I bought a 55 plate Focus 2.0 Tdci. Everything is great apart from.....

A stutter. It happens when accelerating (occasionaly) but I can power out of it fine. Seems to happen more when I have been at high speed for a while e.g. after the motorway. Feels like a gust of wind has hit the car and decelerated the car. but when powering from say 5 -> 20 mph in 2nd gear and hold it at 20 in 2nd, the car stutters. It has only done the holding stuttering after a high speed run.

The car starts fine and when from cold is great, no problems.

There is no smoke or anything like that, fuel compsumption is about 45/mpg which is about right for the 2.0 I believe,

After the car as settled and stood for a while the issue is not there.


Any help would really be appreciated, I don't know my way under the bonnet so asking me to look at something isn't really what I can do , but common issues that can cause this I can relay onto the garage.

There hasnt been any lights on the dash, would getting a code reader help? I have ready that if no lights then no code.

Cheers for any help.
