Engine Hesistant at low speeds

Hello,

Back in 2007, one year after purchase, my car got booked in for a transmission actuator recall. The outcome was a reinstallation of the software on the actuator.

However a year after the programme, the car starting hesitating at low speeds for example when it a traffic jam.

could this be my throttle housing? after all it has done 43000 miles but Vauxhall say it's not the software problem so what could it be?


Thanks for your help!
