She let me down for the first down 😥
Set of to Leicester 05:15 this morning, five miles down the road flashing engine management and running rough. Pull over, restart, same again, plug IID in miss on 7 plus control fault. Suspect coil pack gone.
Very sad as I say first time she has let me down, had to take the wife's Juke. Mind you the view on way wasn't too bad.

Now that's a great view.
Shame about the D3 - if it's just the coil pack, should be easy to fit a new one.
Keep us V8 owners posted

Thought you were talking about SWMBO, so was sitting down with a coffee and biscuit thinking I was in for a good read.

Bet she's not around when your writing that.
Mines into town, hairdresser then afternoon tea with work friends. Beats me what they talk about, it was a prostrate clinic yesterday!

Had a whole pile of misfire codes this morning which was worrying:
• P0307-00 (AA) Cylinder 7 misfire detected
- Test Failed This Monitoring Cycle
- Confirmed
- Test Failed Since Last Clear
- MIL Requested
• P0303-00 (AA) Cylinder 3 misfire detected
- Test Failed This Monitoring Cycle
- Confirmed
- Test Failed Since Last Clear
- MIL Requested
• P0300-00 (AA) Random misfire detected
- Test Failed This Monitoring Cycle
- Confirmed
- Test Failed Since Last Clear
- MIL Requested
• P0316-00 (AA) Misfire detected on start-up (first 1000 revolutions)
- Test Failed This Monitoring Cycle
- Confirmed
- Test Failed Since Last Clear
- MIL Requested
However to check the coil pack theory, I swapped 6 and 7, round no miss on 6 but no miss on 7 or 3 for that matter!!! Will take her out for a run after lunch see if putting it under load makes any difference.==================================
