Hi gang, just want to double check myself here. My '03 disco is running really rough. Having already replaced the plugs and wires with no improvement, I borrowed a code reader. Codes say that 2, 3, 8, and 5 are misfiring. I'm thinking bad coil. Any other possibilities?

 

Yes, your passenger side coil failed, replace them both. Whos plugs and wires did you use?

 

Thanks for the confirmation. Unfortunately, I didn't do any research before I bought plugs and wires. I bought whatever they had at the local parts store. I guess I'll be doing that again soon.

 

Here are some photos from a recent coil pack replacement my son and his buddy (high school seniors) did for me. It took about 2 hours total. Get a new coil pack, intake manifold gasket and I recommend you do the head cover gaskets at the same time.

I'm trying to replace the coil pack in my 2K DII. Does anyone know a way to do it without having to remove the upper intake manifold? As far as i can tell it's pretty much locked in there and no way to get it out without doing that. Also, if I do have to remove the upper intake, what's all intailed to that. Is it just a matter of removing the bolts, lifting it, replace the gasket and tighten the bolts. Do they have to be torqued?
