Ok ya'll!

Car is back home and runs as smooth as ever..... Woohoo!!

Turned out to be 2 blown coil packs...... Nothing else!

What makes this so weird is that the sound the engine made was really scary. Larry, my new best friend and THE man at the dealer thinks it might have been a stuck lifter and suggested to change the oil even though mine is only like 3,000 mls "old".
I will follow his advice.

He also is just rebuilding a GT 3 RS engine (over revved), the man knows his stuff!

Thanks all for listening and helping!

Later,
Andy

Great news, especially when one considers all the other things it could have been. Enjoy!
