Make sure the spark plugs are OK, I had an issue with a sort of miss with the engine. Tried everything but turned out the garage had either fitted the wrong kind or gapped them wrong at the last service.

James, that thread was more to do with changing from Optimax to V-Power than the petrol you're using, so could be a different issue. Help anyone ?

ive been told that if it was coil packs i needed then the probs would occur at high revs and on boost (is that right yeah?), however mine only does it intermitantly and at around 3,000rpm. maybe gona start with a new MAF.....
