accord mk7 & mk8 2.0
hi all, i have a 2009 honda accord mk8 2.0 litre petrol, the engine light came on and was flashing when i started it and went into limp mode, car wouldnt go above 10mph when i tried to get home, there was vibration coming from the engine so i stopped driving it. i called the rac he did a diagnostic it came with cylinder 3 missfire, he did all the checks to rule out the coil & spark plugs and said its most likly the injector. is this common on these engines as iv had many hondas in the past and never had a petrol injector go bad, iv owned the car for 6 years its done around 109k and always used shell (vpower & normal). iv dropped it off to a local garage anyways and asked him to do further checks, but would be good to know if someone else has ever had these go bad on there petrol models, thanks
 
Never seen that. Would be interesting to see what’s found, do report back.
 
Update: took out the injectors and fuel rail, got them cleaned from local injector cleaner and replaced the seals, all is ok now problem solved,
 
That’s great, thanks for circling back Abid.
