Intermittant kangarooing, especially in low gear if I change down to go round a corner/roundabout. Been in garage twice. Put on a computer I think and showed nothing. Had its Lampda lead changed last week and fuel filter changed. Still happening and also started to flutter a bit when driving at normal speed. Any suggestions please. Thank you

Check plugs and leads and check for contaminated fuel, is the clutch ok? clean throttle body, ensure no codes are set in the ECU as well.
