98 Disco - stock 75k v8
Check Engine light came on - got the following codes and definintions:
P0306:
Definition:
Cylinder misfire detected-Cylinder number 6
Explanation:
The powertrain control module monitors the crankshaft speed and has detected a misfire condition.
Possible Causes:
1-Ignition system fault-spark plug(s), ignition wires, coil
2-Vacumm Leak
3-Injector fault
4-High or Low Fuel pressure
P1316
Definition:
Spark plug voltage detection circuit fault- Left bank (2)
Possible Causes:
1-Poor Connection at spark plug Voltage Detection Module (VDM)
2-Open or short circuit between VDM and ECM
I believe the last tune up was around 50k (now 75k) - Ive owned it since 61k - have not replaced the plugs or wires since ownership
NOTE: I have noticed recently (when very damp or cold) a throbing acceloration when at cruising speed and accelerating on incline
the vehicle still starts and revs and accelerates as it always has.
I hope the first code caused the second - My first thoughts are change the spark plugs then wires
any suggestions?
thanks
