hodge Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Ive had the same problem as you mate exactly those symtems. I changed all the coil pack connectors, plugs and checked all intercooler hoses and vacume pipes also reset the ecu. But if you reset ecu remember it will take about 10 mins for it to learn itself again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
