slimjim12 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Hi i have a mondeo 2004 2.0tdci i was hoping if anyone can help me please.If im doing 70 and i put the cruise control on it will start to judder randomly.not bad but i can feel it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObviouslySam Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Check wheels, tyres. Most cars will begin to judder at that speed if wheels are slightly unbalanced also if you have a slight wrap in the wheel, if the tyres show uneven wear it could be wheel allignment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 if its only when the cruise is on, it could be fuel management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjim12 Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 And when it comes to mpg i dont know i did this fix at 2 this morning and i appreciate the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Aluminium melting points are much lower it will just blow through and the residue of the coke will cause much more of a nightmare. Ad for mpg, it can boost anywhere up to 10 best case, worst case 4 or 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
