You ask for calibration results and take them to court. Happens to us all the time

Could work. Emphasis on could because these cars are sensationalised as being th worst thing since Satans fall from heaven so all you need is a magistrate who feels that way and you're f**ked!

Seriously if the calibration is not to spec it gets insta dismissed. It's just a matter of knowing what you are looking at and telling the judge in a way that he gets.

That's in an ideal world.

I am sure in a he said she said type case the judges attitude would matter. But in this instance if you go this is the calibration process for this metre here is the calibration log showing they didn't therefore this reading is inaccurate its case closed. Happened to me before in a big case. I made a simple mistake on one parameter and all my results got thrown out.

I'm cynical of the legal system hence why I chose to never actually practice. :)

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
