I own a Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 manual 2003, I live in United Kingdom and would be grateful if you could help. My engine hesitates under load when warm, stutters then a second or two later recovers, only happens intermittently. There are no warning lights on the dash but would there still be a fault code stored in the cars' computer.

Thanks.

Hi there,

Depending on what is causing the stutter, if it is an engine management problem, there well may be a logged fault code , i would be checking the fuel filter first, it sound like a fuel starvation problem.
