Hi, I need help??
I overtook a car the other night, dropped down a gear and booted it. I heard a pop and my engine management light started flashing and the car started juddering under acceleration through all the gears. When i stopped and revved the engine it was still juddering. Straight away i thought coil pack. next morning i started the car and took the coil packs off 1 by 1. working from left to right ,i took the far right coil pack of and the engine sounded the same. Changed that coil pack but no change.Took out the plug and cleaned it,refitted the pack. no change.stopped the engine and restarted it. took the coil pack of again and refitted it while the engine was running and it worked. the engine sounded fine ,test drove it and all was good. About an hour later i noticed that under normal acceleration it was OK but if i 'put my foot down' it juddered again and at times felt like it lost power for a second. Coming to work this morning ,the management light came on and it juddered through every gear again but after about 5 minutes the light went out and the car drove OK again????
has anyone come across this problem or can give me some ideas of what it might be??
Thanks
Also i have a universal code reader but it showed no codes??
