Hi everyone. I've got a 2010 1.6 THP with 58k on the clock, last serviced at 44k last year. When we bought the car it had an EML and anti-pollution warning. Gave it a few good revs and it cleared more or less right away. The car has plenty of power when driving, but at idle it's judders. Sometimes a little, sometimes very noticeably, sometimes not at all. No EML has ever come on though, and no other warnings on the dash. We keep blasting it down the motorway to maybe help.
We had the spark plugs changed 2 weeks ago which didn't help. We put fuel injector cleaner in also, which seems to have made things worse: judder at idle seems to be more frequent now.
One mechanic said the diagnostic said "injectors". He'd checked the coil packs by basically unplugging each one and seeing how much the engine faltered.
Another mechanic said
P2603 Electric turbo additional coolant pump control fault. open circuit
P1336 Fault misfiring on unspecified cylinders. Not characterised
P1337 Combustion misfiring on cylinder 1 fault. Not characterised
P1338 Combustion misfiring on cylinder 2 fault. Not characterised
P0313 Fault misfire detected during a low fuel level. Not characterised.
He says there's a blockage in the engine and it's "overfuelling", and cheapest option is engine flush and oil service. I'm not sure though.
I should mention the car runs just under 1k revs at idle. The needle sits below the 1k rev mark.
As I say, the car has plenty of power when driving.
Any ideas please? Thank you.
Also, the car is to sell so I can't afford to keep throwing a bunch of money at it.
