Im a new member, so thanks in advance to anyone taking the time to reply, much apreciated !!
That sounds like a disconnected coil pack.
The coil packs should click when properly connected and you should not be able to disconnect unless you press the sides of the connector.
If one of them comes off when you pull it, that's your answer.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
