the car won't start




the generic P0300 misfire is interesting
the others are the faults you get per cyl if a coil stick isn't working....
If its a V8 are you sure you fitted it altogether OK - didn't muddle wires to each coil stick etc. ? if its a V12 usual fun

It wouldn't surprise me if the engine loom is all crispy and snapped wires - what mileage ?
what (if any) other parts did you disturb - you can do all 8 coils sticks inside 30 mins - with plugs and a bit of extra cleaning 1 hour
did you fill with fuel ?
check the receipt did you fill with diesel ? or check social media - its quite common for a garage to miss-fill their tanks - the best way to find out is everyone else saying their car is dead too...

you misunderstood. Once upon a time there was a problem with the engine starting to shake and there were misfire errors. But the car was turned off and started again and then drove for over a month and everything was fine.
It went into the garage and the next day it couldn't be started again. so the mechanic replaced the spark plugs and coils in the garage. and as for refueling, there is definitely fuel in the tank, not diesel.
interesting - just today a thread about CPS (crank position sensor), these wear out and cause interesting fun....
dead coil sticks normally stay dead, so if they were playing up it won't start normal next drive - but a CPS can and regularly does perform like that.
we don't really know what the workshop has done..... and in my experience parts for these cost so much people tend to accidentally borrow your working parts for themselves - landing you with fun when you get your car back
if we think they are legit -
at the miles you mentioned it might be a CPS that caused the strange running - but now its snapped wires to the coil sticks making a big misfire with codes

this newer wording makes me think you should check this video -

Crank position sensors are a wear item. Knowing how they are inclined to fail the E-55 got one every two years.




she in doors did a short 25 yard drive in a 2002 VW golf and switched it off - next day the car wouldn't start - jammed the butterfly open with a screw driver, had the plugs out and neat fuel spat out the plug holes - perfect after that - to say my advice to hold the revs up at 2k rpm for 2 mins before she switched it off was clearly heard (as it should be on any singe start !!!) and my 40 mins pulling engine covers and plugs was 100% necessary !!!
