Coilpacks?

Swap them between cylinders and see if the misfire moves.  If it does then replace the coilpack  :smiley:

Cheers Rhyso...

Sourcing one now, there pretty easy to change as well arent they, they sit on top of the plugs dont they ?

Fairly straightforward by all accounts.  Being a soot chucking owner I've never had to replace one lol

Being an AGU man Ive never changed one either.  :laugh:

I know this is a basic question - well it is if you know the answer....

If you stand in front of the car bonnet up, engine cover off.

Is the coilpack on the left cylinder 1  :embarassed:

correct :afro:
