2002 TS Astra Sri - so loved but first problems

[Glenn2199]

well the best laid plans have come undone again...fault returned about 30km into my drive on saturday. lost all power but warning light did not come on. i kept the motor running after i limped it home so the nrma could have a look but by the time they arrived the misfire had gone. looks like a trip to the service department at suttons or peninsular holden. does anybody have a preference for holden dealers or are they much of a muchness ?

yeh good to see another 2.2 TS owner here!

Damn .. I threw out my old 2.2 inlet manifold a few weeks ago, I've done the 2.4 conversion too. It would be interesting to see what codes it's throwing up.

after leaving my car with the holden dealer for a couple of days the problem was found to be the ignition coil pack, which was replaced. the scannet tech ii threw out the following code DTC-P-0300-Random Cylinder Misfire. so two weeks later and $900 odd poorer the sri has not missed a beat and seems to be her old self, touch wood ! the dealer believes the inlet manifold, ecu, sensors or pre-cat not to be at fault after all.

$900 ouch!
