Hi, My Engine Management came on and stays on without flashing. I took it to thr garage and they changed the plugs & coil but it's still the same. It showed up that all six cylinders were miss firing. Has anyone else come across this problem

Even the 2.2sri engine is 4 cylinder 16v.Vauxhall do not list a 6 cylinder engine for the Astra that does not mean to say it does not have one but its very unusual.

Has it got six plug leads? That would be a clue!
