Hi m8 box was servised a few thousand mile back currently on around 160500 miles,
I have a feeling its not the box now and it looks like its pointing to a slight rough idle when started from cold because when drive is selected with foot on the brake the idle is amplified through the box to give a shudder.

Could just be a one off, especially if it's never done it before. Maybe even due to duff fuel.

Fixed!
OK i fixed the problem, starting off with replacing the fuel filter then HT leads and finally the one that won 1st place >>> replaced the spark plugs <<<
Now she runs like a dream on Denso iridium power plugs gaped at 1mm.

Good news!
Nice when a fix is fairly simple and not expensive. BTW, have you decided if you're coming to the Annual meet next month? PMs don't seem to be getting any response.
