The question
Hi,
I have a 2004 1.6-litre Skoda Octavia. At idle the car chugs as if it is about to cut out and sometimes acceleration fluctuates. What do you think it is?
Thank you

Hi John,
This really sounds like a clogged up throttle body. It needs to be removed and carefully cleaned out. If you've not done this before we'd recommend you turn to an experienced mechanic.
If this does not cure the problem come back to us.
