Hi All.

I have finally got it fixed.  

It was the ECU beleive it or not. Changed it and the little black box  under the steering and she is fine apart from one lamber sensor playing up. Well its dead.

It seems mr clutch may of reversed the positive and negative when the removed my battery as the battery clamp was missing and i do remember when i collected it that the battery clamps where not done up correctly and some of the covers in that area where loose.

Good old Mr Clutch and i am still waiting for there head office to sort it

Hi All

When i first start the car in the morning it does not seem to misfire at all and almost takes off as you would expect.

Then i get a couple hundred yards down the road and it starts to misfire, then the warning lights starts to flash then go solid and  then limits you to about 30 mile an hour which is quite embarassing i can tell you.

I have played around with the cables at the back of the engine. And it did go a couple of miles with no problem, then i stopped at the cash till and it started to flash again and misfire. I cant see any broken wires.

They told me that the mass flywheel did not need replacing.

Thank god as they wanted £420 for that.

I have just picked my car back up which Mr Clutch has had all afternoon and claim there Auto-Electrician claims it must be the ecu.

They say sometimes when you disconnect the car battery ecu can forget all or some of there settings. i dont beleive that.

What is the Module that the engine wiring loom plugs into under the bonnet next to the car battery where a load of relays and fuses are.

Is there a way to check there theory.

I would of thought if the ecu was bad you would get some major messages

I have tried a new coil pack and still the same.

If I drive the car stone cold it seems to drive fine for quarter of mile and then goes all lumpey as if it has got warmed up and then the warning light comes on flashing and then goes solid and then the car goes into limp mode.

Mr Clutch have taken it back today for one of there autoelectricians to have a look as they spent two days earlier this week and got know where.

I have listed the fault codes which are as follows:

P0300 Random/multiple cylinder misfire detected

P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
 
P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
 
P0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected


No other faults are shown.

I have a obdii lead and checked it with vauxcheck software and it just reports P0300, P0301, P0303 P0305

Which is a misfire on cylinders 1 3 5 8-)

I cant see how they could of messed up the cam belt but that did cross my mind. i am trying to get them to pay for it to go to vauxhall as i would hope if anyone could find it it would be them.

I was hoping it would of been sorted by now.

i have checked the lead from the coil pack which just seems to go behind the engine and into the main wiring loom to the right with no other connectors.

if the lamba sensor had an issue wouldnt a fault light come on and be flagged in the ecu

could the engine management unit next to the car battery cause these problems. i only ask because when i got the car back when they done the clutch the cover in that compartment was not put on correctly and the battery terminals where loose too.
