Hi Amanda
Thank you for sharing this. Can I ask you what was the outcome of your polo adventure? I have been having the same problem for the past year. Mine is a 1.2L 05 plate and the jerkiness started when it was only 36000 mile. As long as I keep the accelerator down when the car is stationary, the jerkiness disappears.
I've sent it to two garages. One did a coil check and changed one of the coils. The car was better for a month or so then it started again. The second one couldn't really find what the problem was.
I have just sent the car to an authorised dealer and they told me that it was the cylinder head problem among many other things. The cylinder head alone costs GBP1800 to replace! After my flat refusal, they kindly gave me discount to GBP 1200.
I told them I would just take the car home and sell it if I can't drive it anymore. How did it work for you?
Thank you ever so much.
Regards
Arief
