Sounds like you 'n' me got the same problem ? Anyway have had my car diagnosticised and they have told me the O2 sensors either side of catalytic converter need replacing. Their fault means the surge/judder is the engine trying to correct itself. Anyway I'm gonna be appĀ£400 poorer after the work. GULP. Hope this is of use mate.
