I have a corsa sports 1.6 16v 2000 model. Not had much luck with it only had it a month. Recently had the speed sensor changed. Now when I drive my car it seems to be miss firing or something, its really lumpy when i accelerate and jolts around alot and sounds like it is really struggling. Not sure what it can be anybody got any ideas. Might have to take it to the garage again!!

first off,speak tp vauxhall about 'sticky valves' they had a lot of problems with the carbon build up on the valves.try giving your car a damn hard run up the motorway or something giving it plenty of high revs.let me knoe how you get on

Mine does it, not plugs leads etc had that done last week. If its like mine, after about 3 mins of warming the engine up with some high revs it goes.
Having it checked tomorrow though so will let you know but they think its the temp sensor.
