NOOB WARNING: troubled engine hiccup (dont think its the coilpacks)
#41
Nice, way to spend the time to figure it out! I know your not supposed to fix cars by replacing common failure parts, but 9 times out of 10, it is the common failure part thats the problem, i.e., EGR, injectors, carbon build up etc are rarely the problem on all makes of cars. Especially when chasing a problem that doesn't give you a CEL.

ah. ill know for next time. thanks
after i found the one dead coil and replaced it, it took about 3 months for another to go out so i went ahead and replaced all of them.
i also wrapped them in reflective metal tape and built a heat shield for them. if they go again, i now know that i can just take it to the dealer for a free fix up. thanks again!

Coil packs don't fail from radiated heat but from heat soak if temp is high enough so the reflective tape doesn't do much.
Worse, 90% of the time coil packs from operation not the underhood tempwerature. Just remember coil packs don't last typically longer than 50k miles. Just like filters, spark plugs and tires; they are replaceable items by the owner.

Hi problems here too haha. I've had misfires for two months now. Took it to a few mechanics including Honda. I've had new spark plugs installed, new coil packs, valve adjustment done, fuel induction done, they did an engine compression test (was fine), fuel sample (nothing wrong), so then they wanted to do the fuel injectors. It was expensive so I decided to tackle that. Got OE beck arnley reman injectors and installed them. Was running fine for about 30 min than I decided to fill up and added an injector cleaner. Well then the misfires started again. Maybe I missed a step..? I dunno.. Spent lots of time on everything than money on the same stuff I've done and now I'm tapping out. Help please. Thanks! Ps. 2007 honda fit sport MT with 166k miles. This is the guide I found http://www.hondafitjazz.com/manual/A...801KBAT00.HTML

Its not unheard of to have a replacement part as faulty as the one replaced.
Yes, you will need a code reader and list. If it doesn't switch suspect the wire first then the ECU.

Have you traded coil packs and spark plugs to see if misfire changes cylinders too. hint switch the plugs and coil packs to different cylinders to follow the change in misfire.
