Oh dear!

But im pretty sure its Coilpack..

[chambers]

as above, didnt Adam have the same with his, got it fixed when they changed his coil pack tho

[dublinvtr08]

thanx lads i dont bloody get paid for another two weeks so holding off driving it till then....i never thought of the coilpack im praying it just that and not the bloody gear box or clutch :( any ideas how much it'll cost for a new coil????

[Craig]

There are some on ebay!

Citroen will charge £100 i recon for a new coilpack! there quite complex.

I was bidding one one the other day and it went for £5.50

[chambers]

Foudnthe ones for the 1.1 and 1.4 but non for 1.6's at the moment anyway

[dublinvtr08]

could do yeah my mates clio coilpack went not too long ago he couldnt drive it anywhere over 20mph wouldnt shift

[shaunyvts]

I had similar symptoms when I had my vts, turned out to be the throttle position sensor! but the coilpack is a pretty common thing by all accounts.

[spooky_fish]

Yeah, my coil pack went, so I replaced it, it started to work fine, but then about a week later it was juddering away again, turned out to be the injectors where f**ked, (took citroen 3 diagnostics to realise this!)

Sounds like you may be in a similar boat?

[kikassridec2]

definately not the luck of the irish!

sorry to spoil your day, but that is excatly what happened to me... I completely forgot...

It randomly went off, so I canceled its appointments with citroen, then about 2 days later the car just completely packed in...

there is a thread about it somewhere on here but good luck trying to find it!
