If complaints are made about the above-mentioned fault, the problem could lie with one or several defective ignition coils.
In certain circumstances, the customer could also complain about various other points, such as poor starting, rough idling of engine and insufficient throttle response during acceleration.
With such cases, cracking on the ignition coils, caused by excessive heat and moisture, could be the cause of the failure and subsequent malfunction.
The solution is to run checks on the ignition coils for cracks and also checks to ensure adequate insulation of the ignition coil cable harness. All faulty components are to be replaced.
A modified ignition coil pack is available to assist in such cases.
