Recently the engine management orange warning lamp appeared on my dash and the car suffered an immediate loss of power. My local garage diagnosed a coil pack problem and replaced this to no effect.
Their diagnostics suggested that the cyclinder bank 1,3 & 5 was showing a misfire and Cat problem. The next course of action was to replace plug leads to see if the additional spark would cure the problem...it hasn't.
The next suggested step is to replace the Cat for that bank of cylinders, not cheap, with no guarantee that this will cure the problem either.
Has anyone on this forum experienced a similar issue and had it resolved?
Many thanks
Steve
