dipsomaniac Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 usual suspects are plugs, leads & coil pack(s). a faulty MAF usually causes a loss of power as opposed to a misfire. if you haven't got access to a fault code reader you need to start by removing the plugs/leads and inspecting them for any signs of a problem. When were the plugs and leads last changed? If you don't know I would change them anyway. i bought some leads last year from main dealer - Quote
KP 115 Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 it might also be worth checking your vacuum hoses as it may be a leaking hose or pipe disconected as this can cause similar symptoms. Quote
