My paw is having bother with his 57 plate Vectra diesel. When in higher gears (very rarely 5th, almost always 6th) it has an intermittent issue where it'll begin to shudder under load, and hesitate quite badly through the revs. No eml, so no codes as that's been checked already. It ran braw for a while there (a month or so after the last time it happened) and now it's started again. It clears itself eventually but has anyone come across this?

Diesels don't have coil packs or spark plugs.
