just an update, well my mate has replaced the dv, all 4 coil packs and plugs, and the pcv with the latest revision and it still does it!  its driving him mad, is mis-fires quite badly on cold start and just gives a slight mis fire under light throttle and feel as if its holding back, but when it gets to 90 degrees it seems to be ok and still no fault codes?!  very confusing  :huh:

could be coolant temp sensor G62

Just found out the plugs he put in the other week are far too cold running for the car are the oem plugs for the pirelli the ones to go for?
