Hi guys
Just been rescued by AA after my car started misfiring and would barely move at max revs. AA chaps computer gave 'spurious error' code apparently but he fitted a new coil pack (£92) and the misfiring has stopped and in fact the car feels more responsive that it has in ages.
Only problem is - it's still showing an error code - the engine light is orange and the display flashes 'Engine Fault'. It still drives great, and AA man tried to reset it but it's now showing an error stating 'Cam Shaft error'. He's told me it's driveable (and it is, just tested in Blackpool to Kirkham on the M55 - no probs) but to take it to local garage asap.
Am going to contact garage tomorrow but want to brace myself - what on earth could a cam shaft error be and what damage to my bank account? AA man said it might just be the sensor....think he might have been trying to make me feel better lol...
Cheers!!
