Mend Nissan Almera Problem Changed Plugs

Nissan Almera Tino 01, timeing chain problem or not?

Hi, i have a 01 Nissan Almera Tino, changed plugs and coil packs, the car is still shuddering, when driving. It starts first time no problem starting. Told by a local garage it is the timeing chain cost £650. The anger managment light is still on, could this be the timeing chain or another fault? Shudders more when changing gear, and picking up speed.

have you tried testing the coil packs? these are the bits that are on top of your spark plugs instead of normal HT leads.
they are prone to faults and about £130 each to replace!
my car had the same symptoms, starting with a mild misfire and then shuddering and stalling when coming to junctions etc.

ask your local dealer to test them for you as the timing chain is not likely to be your problem.
my car had done 40,000 miles when this occurred at 5 years old.
