Vauxhall Corsa D - '08 Corsa misfire - happyvaux

Hi all, [car is 2008 1.4 corsa auto]

engine light (engine electrics ) started coming on intermittently, stays on and car runs sluggishly (I suppose in emergency mode), but then is not on when car is started again.

I changed the plugs and air filter and cleaned out the (partially blocked) breather hoses.

At idle, can feel a slight misfire or knock, can't tell under load.

Got hold of a code reader which showed no fault codes at first, but after the latest instance of the light coming on, now shows

P0303 cylinder 3 misfire $ 07E8pd Generic

Would this point to the ignition module?

Thanks for any advice,

Pete

Coil pack is the most likely suspect on these,but I would check the engine oil level first.

Thanks elekie&a/c doctor,

the engine oil level is good, so I guess I'm looking at a coil pack then...

I haven't heard of this being common on the Corsa D.

Cheers,

Pete

Just been looking at coil packs online, this IS the ignition module......

New ignition module (or coil pack) cured the fault....
