running on three

Unread post by Stempy »

Having just paid squillions for a gearbox repair, the Kangoo has now decided to run on three cylinders and engine management light flashing. Too dark and cold to go messing about at the mo but if anyone has a starter for ten with regard to where to look first. I'm thinking duff coil, any advances?

So it was a coil. Strange thing though when I was checking them out by substitution a second one failed so I bit the bullet and replaced all four. Seems fine now and ticks over smoother than ever. £75 total from GSF.
