Guys with your help I might live!

My car is a UK Cat MY97

I had it since Dec00, 32k miles, the dealer did the 37k service but the last service was done at 30k miles almost 2 yrs back. (Did they really change the plugs??) The mileage is now 39k, I do drive it hard.

I am experiencing a rough drive at times and at 90-100-110mph cruise at part throttle I get judder feel like it's missing, rev's between 3.5-4. What Can it be?

You assistance with the above is more than welcome

Regards

TC

does it happen in all gears through this rev band or is it always at these speeds?

If it's always at these speeds I would get your wheel balancing checked.
