been having problems today, engine management light came on this morning but thought nothing of it as been having problems recently!
last friday the light came on for no apparent reason, was the day after i had the cambelt changed so took it in to get it read just incase and it was 27 counts of faults on coil pack 1. the guy said it possibly could be the pack on the way out or most probably the spark plugs so changed them and its been fine!
today the light came on again for no apparent reason but later in the day the reason came aparent! i keep having a sudden juddering and loss of power, both when accelerating and sat at lights idling. it feels like one of the cylinders isnt firing but dropping the clutch and a tap of the gas sorts it!
so im a bit puzzled! we had this a few months back and some redex in the tank seemed to sort it. im thinking along the lines of the coil pack going and keeps stopping firing? or could it be something less expensive!
