Misfiring vRS

Featured Replies

Afternoon chaps. It's been a while since I've posted. 

 

Ive got a slight issue with my car. I've changed all the injectors and the injector wiring loom and it's still misfiring. Luckily it happened 10 miles from home so hopefully no damage has been done. Since it's been misfiring it's got an oil leak. Would this be causing excess pressure and forcing the oil out of a seal? I'm yet to get under the car to see where it's coming from. 

You have had some bad luck recently with that car..... hope you get to the bottom of it.

A misfire won't damage anything on a turbo diesel, how could it?

 

Oil leak will be from the cambox cover after you disturbed it changing the injectors and loom, nothing whatsoever to do with the misfire.

 

This could be caused by a worn cam lobe, have a really good look at the cam when you whip the cambox cover off to fix the leak.
