When you put your foot down the car just kind of gurgles and doesnt go anywhere.
It got dangerous in busy traffic when you have to pick a tight gap, cos you would put your foot down and the car just wont go.

Default Dfi

the reason i ask is because my vp calais idles shit after hot starts, the idle is also erattic jumps from 500 - 700 rpm sometimes, and does feel a but gutless still drives perfect on the road doesnt miss a beat when driving. ive changed everything else i can think of leads, sensors, injectors, plugs, coils u name it.

thanks

take the coilpack off and check if the resin shows signs of overheating (ie. it's all mucky). if so it's kaput.
