Coil pack replacement
« on: 16 January 2009, 15:14:20 »

After going out today the car felt as if it was on rumble strips over 50. It was the same on gas or petrol so I think the coil pack is a possibility. It was especially teeth jarring when accelerating. Cruising was not too bad and under 50 was reasonable.

Any advice or help for replacing the coil pack on a 2.5 V6 would be of help.

Though there is a good chance it is, do a paperclip test first, to see if engine thinks anything is wrong.  Also worth checking plugwells for oil
