Took out the passenger side coil pack due to a misfire which prevented me using the car to go for a weekend away - presumed it was the coil pack getting wet from the scuttle - but it was bone dry  :-\

Not misfiring at all now, after it made me use the wife's Pug 206 instead (a much tighter fit)  >:(

Yet another service ::), only an oil and filter ones this time, but did the breathers, tidied up the brake vac hose where I'd changed the non return valve, (cheers to Andy B for posting summat about heating the pipe :y no more speed tape on it :-X). Also changed the Fuel Rail Pressure Valve, just to rule it out...time will tell.

Drove it to Thruxton to watch the bikes. Me and the lad had a excellent time  :) He's turning into a right chip off the old block.

Was the pressure marked on the pressure regulator?

Also.. Did you check the part number on the injectors?

Pressure regulator was 3.8bar but swapped over as had to remove one on car to read markings.

Injectors same p/n, left them on car as they don't seem to be the problem ie no injector codes :-\

Eml has mostly stayed off but does come on eventually when idling for 5 mins or so :-\

Codes are 0300, 0306 ::)

Hmm. I suspect that theory might have gone down the pan, then. :-\

Glad you reminded me about that.  ::)
