Hi folks.

I'm new to this forum. I have a 2001 bug eye wrx wagon, totally standard. Problem with it is it ticks over at around 600 rpm, can hold back slightly at times, the engine management light is on, some times it flashes on and off then stays on again. Last week it went off by its self for a few days and has come on permanent again. I have plugged it in on a friends scanner numerous times and it just says missfire detected on cylinders 1,2,3,4. we turn the light off and it allways comes back on within 2 days. has anyone else had this problem?

Cheers lads

Sounds like the ignition system is the problem.
I'd get it to a specialist, NOT a dealer.

 

cheers for that, someone said could be lamda sensor. I had a look and could only see 1,the scanner only had 1 on the screen when reading all the sensors but when i went to price one up they tell me theres 2. where is the front one? cheers
