Hi, my mums Astra went into limp mode and threw up a misfire on cylinder 2 fault code today. After cleaning the plugs and no change I have ordered a new coil pack. Just want to check there is nothing else it could be. The only other thing I can think of is an injector but would the ECU recognise that and throw up a different code?
Any ideas?
Thanks

New coilpack ét voila.

They all bloody do it. Mine included lol

Injector faults normally come back as high pressure/low pressure fuel or something like that.

my old vectra done this but i never had a fault code for it, neither did my mates omega v6 or the 1 million ford focus's ive changed in the past but if it comes up with rpm no signal its usually the crank sensor that will give a misfire aswell iirc

Thanks, thought it would do the job but wanted to check there was nothing I was overlooking. Just foud out that the AA supply a rental car for up to three days included in the membership! I hope the coil pack arrives within 3 days!
