i know i dont own a corsa but its worth a shot. own a A3 1.8 20v (non T)

car is due a service (last one was 10k ago) and this week ive noticed its lost a bit of power, and tonight one u get to 4.5 krpm and upwards it starts to missfire hessitate, i know on Audi's the hav a common fault with AFM bit i replaced that a few mont h ago n doubt it will be that again...

so basically will a change of plugs sort it? just wasnt to sure if it wud missfire lower donw the rev range if it was a plug prob.

would normally be there all the time more so under load (lower revs) buts its worth ago espacially as the sensor was done because it might of been running crap and choked the plugs up
