My car Jerks badly especially when taking my foot off the clutch. I also experience change in vehicle movement and a kind of stiffening/dragging engine when I switch on the AC.

Hello,

It sounds like you have an engine misfire but to be sure can you take a quick video of the problem and upload it here at the site so I can see what it is doing?

This guide can help.
