My m8s corsa 1.6 gsi is recently started playing up
The car starts fine and runs like a dream under 3k revs BUT as soon as you out hit 3k revs that wen it becomes a diffrent story. It starts judering like mad and sounds like its miss fireing or trying to back fire
I had sumone put the car on a vauxhall computer but he siad it dose not show any faults...so started to try diff parts that we thought colud be wrong with it
have replaced the leads ,the plugs and even tryed a diffrent coil pack on it
I have now been informd it may be caused by the airflow metor but cant get a hold of one anywere....Also sumone informd me it can be caused by the cat from the exauts
Has anyone ever came across this or got a clue what can be the problem
will be greatfull for your input many thanks

all i can suggest is disconect the battery for 20 minuits and see if it kicks it out of safe mode.
if its playing up at a certen RPM try testing the Crank postition sensor, might be sending scrambeled messages after 3k
