Thoughts before it goes to see a doctor.

Full main dealer everything.

In auto, manual, any form, seems (to a layman) more fuel / injector than gearbox) related.

thoughts, ideas, costs, please

and options if not RBM ?

When you say grumbling, do you mean the engine is noisy? If so I really hope it isn't this

Hesitation can be caused all manner of things. EGR valve sticking open, duff injector(s), bad upstream O2 sensor etc.

I do have a thought though. If you are that apathetic about attempting to describe the problem and provide context, then the doctor is the best place for it in the first instance.
