over here we call it dynamo well basically once the car starts it runs on that "dynamo thingi" i think its called the alternator or i dont know i changed sparks plugs and spark wires and air filer and fuel pump and filter but when i am at full stop on "D" Gear the car RPM lowers and the car vibrates ..... makes the car have a bad launch while in round abouts ...

YOU CAN TAKE THE ALTENATOR TO KRAGEN AUTO PARTS, AND THEY CAN CHECK/TEST IT FOR YOU. IT'S USUALLY REAL INEXPENSIVE IF NOT FREE. DYNAMO IS BASICALLY THE CONTACT BRUSHES{POINTS}

Going to have a heck of a time-finding a KRAGEN,over seas.....Yes,a dynamo,is the alternater.
YEAH, AND THEY MIGHT JUST HAVE KRAGEN IN ENGLAND, IF NOT IT HAS ANOTHER NAME. STILL I THINK HE UNDERSTANDS AUTO PARTS STORE.
if dynamo is the contact mushing on the alternator then its really easy just to swap those out, ive had the same alternator for 300,000 miles i just keep on replacing the 'dynamo'
aaite thanks guys got it fixed but there is something still missing when the car is at full still it lags before catching speed like missing i think
clean your throttle body it should fix the rough idle and better launch
i cleaned the throttle body but i still have the same issue :S here is what i did spark plugs change spark plugs wire changed throttle body cleaned fuel filter changed fuel pump changed and i still have that glitch! do i need to change gasket ?
