   Hi all, my VTS misses very slightly on idle. Goes well and drives fine its just on idle. I've bought some more plugs and C type service gear as the last recorded service was over 25,000 ago but haven't put them in just yet.
   
   Just wondered if this was a common fault with them as i've been told there bad for coil packs...
   
   Thanks, Loz

   Okay , sure it could be that though? i thought bad coils caused it to misfire underload and be quite noticable?
