• Audi A3 2002 1.6 petrol misfire ? 24 Feb 2016 (Forum)
  Also the coil (which is used for 2 cylinders) has been inverted, the fault stayed on cylinder 2. It’s not the fueling as all petrol injectors all spray the same. Also the problem does not change when switching between petrol and LPG fuel. It doesn’t appear to be the engine either. A compression test gives the same pressure on all cylinders.

• Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 auto - voyager starting problem 3 Sep 2015 (Forum)
  I have changed the battery to a fancy gel one, two starter motors, crank and cam shaft sensors, new fuel filter and primer part on top.

• Mondeo 2003 TDCI, 2,0, 96kw - Mondeo TDCI keeps on cutting out 23 Jun 2015 (Forum)
  I must add that in March (7,000 kilometres ago), I did a full regeneration of injectors and a pump, so I would not suspect that the problem is there... The car has a new fuel filter. I am betting on cam/crank sensors, or fuel pressure sensor on the CR. When connected to a computer, none of code errors show up. Any ideas what should be repaired? Really sorry if I repeat the topic.
