Flat spot

I seem to be getting a flat spot at about 4000 revs, I don't know what the problem would be.

My butler seems to think it's something called the 'MUF', but since buying the 8C I've not had any trouble with that

Anyhoo, I'd really appreciate some help as I'd like to show off my beautiful motor car when I next visit Her Majesty.

Re: Flat spot

Flat spot could be on the tyres - switch off the "invisibility mode" then check tyres. With luck they will only be flat at the bottom so safe to run at less than 3000rpm!
