hi do nt normally o forums .. but after ages deciding and been put of by everyone i got myself a t reg coupe turbo .. all was well till yesterday .when for 5 minutes the engine management squirty symbol was on and she ws misfiring then it went of all was well .. it done this a few times then it just stayed on .. before i take it for a diagnostic tes i ran my own test and after ruling out plug and coil pack narrowed it to the injector nearest the passenger side .. there is power to the injector but unlike th eother 4 doesnt change the engine revs/sound when removed .. and to top it all of the enginemanagement light now goes of when it should when you first start up but the misfire and prob with that injector is still there she still has some power but oviosly not what it should .. if it is the injector are they easy to do .. and are they expensive and could soaking it (blocked) anywhoo apart from that the 80 miles i got out of it was sooooooo much fun :D
 
You really need to get someone with a code reader to have a look what codes are stored in the ECU & go from there. As a long shot, depending on mileage etc, you could try taking out all the injectors, have them tested & sonic cleaned. No guarantees is there but might be worth a shot.

When was the last full service done? Does it use oil faster than it should?
