Out for an early morning drive earlier. All was going very nicely and engine well warmed through.
Slowed down for a junction and as I pulled away the engine stuttered almost a full cut. Then accelerated, albeit with a slight (single cylinder?) misfire. Wouldn't take more than a slight throttle.
I drove slowly for a couple of miles. Tried again. Better, but still a slight misfire on heavier throttle applications.
Idle speed and part throttle light cruising seems ok.
Coil pack(s)??????
I have pulled all the coil packs and spark plugs. Plugs are fine and all identical in appearance. Coil packs all look ok though there maybe a very very slight hairline crack on one or two, but nothing obvious. All the Low tension connectors were secure.
Since doing this I took it for another short drive and all appeared well.
No fault codes are stored via the OBD2.
Before I replace all 6 coil packs on the basis I don't know what else may be likely (I have a long 2,000 mile trip planned soon) ........... anyone got any other thoughts?
Many thanks, James
