    Unhappy Spanner warning light and loss of power!

    Morning guys,

    This morning on the way to work, a warning light appeared on the dash - a car with a spanner through it. Whilst this appeared, I have a loss of power. The car absolutely crawls.

    Any ideas what this might be?

    Try the ignition coil pack. About £90, brand new Bosch original. But first: check the error codes. Mine had P0301 + P0303 = misfire cyl 1 + 3.
    The pedal test can only be done on some models.
