Interesting bud, something definately isnt right.
I'd still be tempted to whip the plugs out and have a quick look at em.

As long as the knock fault has gone for good, it didn't on mine, it came back 
and you know what happened next 
But does seem likely if you got a bad sensor or a bad sparkie or coil, then the misfire will make the knock sensors, say oh hello!!
As long as you not getting any low engine vibration, or tippity tappy sounds under load, that get less when you dip the clutch, it shouldn't be what I had.

Like a very tinny metallic pinging under load? Could be mistaken for a small hole in the exahust?
I didn't, dealer did. I have parts on order, but the temp fix they've done has made a difference for sure, whether it's fixed the misfiring when cold I guess I'll have to wait and see.
You never know, they might have swapped the plugs, and not told me, but there was nothing on the job card.

It's a while ago now, but ISTR that it was TWO coilpacks in the end - one went and was replaced then another went a week later. It was fine afterwards.
Replacing the split N249 "y" pipe smoothed out the idle/tickover, but I don't think it was to do with the misfire.
