Hey guys,
Recently my VZ v6 has started missing at idle, it's 100% fine once you are moving. It's really really bad with the AC on, but barely noticeable without it. I've replaced the plugs already, with NKG platinums, but same problem still happening. I am beginning to suspect coils, as i have no idea when they were last changed, and car has 265,000k's on it. What is the most likely thing to check next, based on this info? Is the fact that it happens much more pronounced with the AC on a sign of anything in particular?
I have found I can get coils on ebay for $25 so not sure if i should just get 2 and try 2 cylinders at a time or just get 6 and replace em all, or if maybe something else is worth checking first?
Thanks guys.
