Hi, my cars keeps "jolting" as I accelerate to aprox 30mph then yesterday it lost complete acceleration, however the rev counter was still working and it drove again after restarting the engine, though the jolting continued and it cut out twice more, a light has appeared on my dash but I havent yet looked in the manual as it is elsewhere, does anyone have any suggestions as to the fault? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, charlie.

Thanks for your reply, I do have what looks like an engine light appear on my dash. The car is just over 3 years old and the warranty has therefore just expired however it has had a service and its first MOT in october, should the parts be covered by these?
