Have had problems with engine management light. Keeps coming on. Have changed spark plugs, had 5 different coil packs in 3 months. Had ECU replaced. But still having the same problems. Has been back into main dealer 7 times since ECU done.Everytime they clear the fault codes the car is fine for 7 - 10 days then engine management light on again and loss of power. At wits end now.

The fault codes always the same misfires. Last fault codes P0301 misfire cylinder 1, P0300 random misfires. Seems to be different cylinder each time plus random misfires. Last time cleared codes was 18/09/2010 been fine til 30/09/2010. Called Motorbodies again today 01/10/2010 and getting no where fast.

Symptoms now loss of power, can do about 20 mph and cant get up a slight incline as foot flat to floor and slowing down. Can tell now when its about to go as the car gets a little noisy and when changing up gear there is a bit of hesitation. Give it a day then faults again. Engine management light flashes twice then stays on.
