I wonder when the counter starts from though... From when I last unplugged the battery? Since I started the car this morning? From factory? All depends on the scale. If its misfired 6 times between starting the car at home this morning and work driving to work I'd be worried. I live like 8km away from work The car barely even gets to temp between home and work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it was in fact 6 misfires between work and home. Took me 11 minutes to get to work this morning so that's just over 1 misfire every two minutes. Odd or not? 🤔🤔🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 9 on the way to get the Mrs from the trains station... Can anyone explain what a misfire feels like? Every time the counter went up was while I was cruising. Cruise control @ 70km/h. Possibly a bad sensor or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna flush the coolant, new oil and filter, gonna put some new plugs in and maybe new coils. Putting some painted callipers on so will flush the brake fluid too. Gonna go over everything and make sure its mint. Any recommended plugs or just got with oem replacements? As for the misfiring, doesn't feel any different when the counter goes up 🤷♂️ I'm just gonna keep an eye on it and let Rob know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
