Are you running on diesel
Try a new filter/service

[daveandgina]

hi there sorry forgot to say its diesel

Yep, I'd say its in need of a new fuel filter. I get the same juddering on one of my vans which I put down to moisture on the clutch plate. Always clears up after a while, but does it every morning.

Air in the system causing a stall and then a misfire First thing to check is the condition of the leak off pipes. lengths of small bore cotton braided pipe that run from each injector. if they are split at the ends and leaking diesel replace them and at the same time do the leak off mod. (try a search) which involves swapping the return to tank pipe from 4th to first injector.
If all ok try a filter change, ensuring the filter is sealing properly on the filter head.
Let us know how it is after this.
