Car's down to 3 cylinders and A/F gauge indicating very lean.

I thought it might be another coil but no coil codes have come up.

Here's the codes

16622 - turbo boost sensor high input
16684 - Random / multiple cylinder misfire
17794 - Internal control module knock control circ error
18010 - power supply (B+) term 30 low voltage
18011 - internal control module malfunction

Anbody got any ideas?

cheers

Right, fired her up this morning still running on 3 cylinders. Pulled out each coilpack one at a time, it started up ok with 1 removed until i got to the last one on the drivers side, pulled it out and tried to start it, made a funny clunking sound then all power died(voltage) then all the dash lights/gauges started flashing and clicking, now it won't even turn over.

I think that coil is the problem but does anyone ahve any ideas other than that?

Never heard of a coil pack f*cking with the rest of the electrics.

cheers

Quickest way to find out if its the coil pack is just to stick on a new one.

They were on ebay for around £20 last time i looked.
 
I know but i ain't got one! Forgot to get a spare after last time. Think going to the local veedub garage tomorrow will be quicker than ebay.

Haven't seen them on ebay for ages.
 
Baz is your car an AUM? I have a spare coil from when i pulled a misfire code (although engine ran fine). Will be in Aberdeen on Thursday if its of any help to you?

Na mate it's an AYP, just off the phone to Town & County and they've got 4 coils in stock however they aren't the newest ones (06B 905 115Q) they're the 'L' version but i shouldn't think it'll make much difference as mine are the 'G' version.

cheers guys

fingers crossed.
 
Running problem is now fixed, firing on all cylinders!!

There is still a problem somewhere, if the car is turned off and i attempt to start it again everything goes dead, completely dead! Doesn't even offer to turn over. Leave it for a minute and try again if fires up fine!??:confused:

No fault codes either??

any ideas?
