35iS Ignition Problem

Was able to reproduce the issue steadily now when going low speed (70 kph) in Manual 7th gear and then going full ham on the throttle (on a good straight road). Will upload a short video soon and they you can decide whether you think its ignition/fuel related or a traction problem. Its important to mention the issue ONLY arises when revs are low and then you give it a punch (throttle wise), if you're just accelerating quickly going through the gears (shifting at 4-6k rpms) sequentially in a manual way there is no problem at all.

Unfortunately that's not all, my former issue was away for 3 days but after a good quick evening drive today the 'old' issue with CEL and running on less cylinders came also back. Guess it wasn't the plugs / coils, or at least not solely them :?

Will shoot the shop that did the replacement (under warranty) earlier a message and see what they think. Its giving same 2DED > 'Power management, close d-circuit current violation' code but misfire codes are no longer solely the 29D0 > 'Combustion misfires, cylinder 4' but also the similar codes for cylinders 2 and 6. Guess I might start thinking about an injector or HPFP issue after all?

What index numbers are your injectors?

What fuel is it on?

The DDE code is a seperate issue with one or more systems on the car not shutting down properly when shut off..

If you take the cam cover of you can see the index number printed on top of the injector..

HPFP could be an issue..they are known to go south..

Can you do logging?

Then you can see things like LPFP HPFP pressures!
