Hi
Car is a 2006 Manual VTI with 160,000k on the clock. Recently the car exhibits the following symptoms: Jerking/hesitating under acceleration. This happens mainly when going uphill, and/or with the air con on, and/or with 4 people in the car. The car also feels underpowered with a flatspot in acceleration at the low end.
I have no engine warning lights or error codes, and idle is perfect.
Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can narrow the problem to the fuel system, or the coils or plugs, or other possible causes.
Thanks
