Hi,

While sat at the traffic lights this afternoon, I had the warning lights as per the subject heading come on. The car was stuttering / in limp mode.

I stopped, gave it 5 mins and then made off again. Only the CEL light / drive to workshop warning light remained. A few miles on and the PSM warning came back along with limp mode.

Reading through the forums it seems to point towards a coil pack. Does anyone know which cylinders the coil packs are labour intensive to change please ? The plugs were replaced last year / 5k ago but unfortunately did not change the 3 remaining coil packs at that point. It's only now once I have researched that I realised this would have made perfect sense to do so!! grrr
 
Answered via The Pm you sent .. Just to reiterate .. the coils on these dont need changing when one has an issue .. we replace them singularly as we would any item that has failed .. all 6 is back to the days of corrosion .. these dont corrode .
