Good luck mate. The fluttering is annoying, but when you've had to put up with a car running on 2 cylinders all week, it doesn't really bother me anymore!

Do you get the flutter when booting it higher up the rev range? I generally only get it when hitting it from too low down. If I go from 4k rpm up I just get engine and exhaust noise. From 2-3k, in a high gear, which is a no no anyway, that's when I get the flutter.

Bet your car sounded like it was dying on 2 cylinders!!

I'm going to change my plugs ever 6k/6 months from now on I think. The performance benefits are worthwhile. The car goes like stink on new plugs.

Naaaah its not like I'm trying to boot it in 5th whilst doing 40mph mate. I get it in all gears usually lower down the rev range. Pretty much what 'crigisback' showed in his video!

Shnazzle (aka Patrick the dutch/American/south African/Irish man) said the car sounded awful when I drove off after he scanned it for me lol. I just drove with the windows up so I didn't have to listen to it hahah

Same here mate, I can't believe that changing the plugs sorted it out lol
