Hi,
I am new here and wondering if anyone can offer some thoughts or advice. I have a 2006 VZ, 120,00-km log book serviced from new. I recently had a new ECU fitted. Cost a fortune. two days ago I started the car from cold and the check powertrain warning light came on. Engine was misfiring. within a few minutes of idling, smoke was coming form under the bonnet. Mechanic says a coil pack was melted and he says he has not seen one like that before. a complete new set of coils packs were fitted and mechanic says engine still misfiring and one complete bank ( injectors cylinders?) is not working according to the fault codes. He needs to investigate further but suspects the ECU is blown .
Having just coughed up for an ECU i an hoping it is not that. My question is, could a faulty ECU fry the coil pack? I would be appreciative of any thoughts anyone may have on this
Many Thanks
