Hi guys. After a week of praising the car up for running so well to pod and back, it seems I might have spoke to soon. Driving to work this morning, pulled up to a roundabout and she died. Started it again and again but kept dying. After some serious kangaroo juice and misfiring it cleared it self and was fine for another 10 miles. Then started all over again at the next roundabout. After leaving it for a few mins I managed to crawl it to work.

Any ideas before I start throwing money at her?? Thought it might be coil packs but being 6 cylinder it should still be driveable. Starting to think fuel problems. Any help would be appreciated.

    Same old symptoms... ICV/CPS fouling, failing this it could be a combination of other minor things such as filters, MAF etc...
