Mine is in tomorrow but it's really misfiring. Don't know whether to drive or tow it?

All I can say is give the dealer a call and they will be able to see it on the system as they flagged mine up straight away. Took 4 bloody hours though, free tea and biscuits though  :laugh:

Well I had the coils replaced and it seemed fine but started it up today and it did the same? It's fine once it's warmed up a bit?
