Engine feels jumpy when idling or accelerating
Suzuki Swift 2008 Hatchback 76428 miles
I’ve been into the garage twice now and currently spent $2.5 k on fixes that haven’t worked: brand new engine + a whole new set of coils but the issue has continued.
I spoke the garage again and asked about the transmission mount and they said they tested it but there’s no issues showing - so what else could it possibly be??
It feels like the car is jerking or the accelerator is failing while I’m driving - it’s like a small jerk and makes me think the engine is about fail while I’m driving but then the issue will stop for a minute and then do it again. Repeatedly

Thank you!
But my car went into the garage at the start of January and is still there now - it’s so frustrating.
I'm currently in the process of it being inspected through AA pre checks, and if any other problem arises with the swift then I can book it into the garage to get it well looked at, In hopes they pick up the problem then I can let you know how I go.
Thanks
