long-gone 152 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 I have the engine light on again, Torque app reports P0351 & P0352 this time. Had one coilpack replaced under warranty a couple of years ago - now another two. Awaiting callback from dealer... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
long-gone 152 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 They say it may be engine control module and want to take a look to confirm. Booked in for Monday 28 November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob275 1817 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 Best it's done before the remap as they will get a bit iffy otherwise. I still need to book mine in for the same. Coil pack seems to be so common I've just not bothered replacing, had the fault code for a good year now lol Sent from my ONE E1003 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ade 517 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 swap them over and the code will bugger off for another 10k..... the mystical coil pack issue that know-one can tell WTF is wrong with the coilpacks throwing the codes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
long-gone 152 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 They suggested it may be the engine control module throwing the error, not coilpacks. Guess I'll know next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surrey86 352 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 Yeah I had those two, only happens for me on track (so far). Toyota Motorline would only swap the coils for the rear two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JRot 13 Report post Posted November 23, 2016 I get the p0351 engine light only when I flat out accelerate hard in full auto... With sport mode, Been driving in semi auto for now 5 months not once has it returned, so sensor likely for me. But Toyota saw the code but as it's totally random they couldn't regenerate the fault... So yeah weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted November 23, 2016 I've been through two so far. Weirdly Coil Pack A both times. I've done 92K miles. Had one replaced last month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
long-gone 152 Report post Posted November 24, 2016 Mine's only 50-odd thousand but an early one - I took delivery 1 September 2012. Only other warranty issue I can remember was condensation in rear lights, so not too bad for over four years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neron198x 1 Report post Posted November 26, 2016 I had my coils replaced a month ago or so . The code still comes up. Guys in Toyota said that it is turbo fault which after discussion with Fensport shouldn't be the issue. Any one has any other ideas? I don't think its the injector seals as I don't have any pops in the engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nerdstrike 186 Report post Posted November 27, 2016 What about wiring? My last car liked to let moisture into the HT leads, and then there's the trigger for the code. Tolerances must be tight on the voltage profile of the coil, so what about grounding? The car is a bit young for rusted earth points though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

long-gone 152 Report post Posted November 28, 2016 Platinum Toyota's replaced both coil packs. Collecting it lunchtime. Under warranty again this time, but how much do we think this'll cost next time once the warranty's run out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surrey86 352 Report post Posted December 12, 2016 P0351 returned for me after last week, Motorline finally have decided they will replace the coil pack on Thursday. This could get to be quite an expensive issue when these cars drop out of warranty. 1 long-gone reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted December 12, 2016 I don't see why you couldn't change a coilpack yourself. Depends how much they are. Think it was around £30-40 when I was offered one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nerdstrike 186 Report post Posted December 12, 2016 It shouldn't be a big deal to replace them all. Access and quality spares are the only bugbears. After staring at some images of the engine bay, it looks like a royal pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's bizarre Motorline are messing around with courtesy cars and workshop time investigating and swapping coils around over £30. 1 Ade reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

surrey86 352 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 Good point. It would be ok for me, but I presume you need to go in from the bottom to change these? A lot of people with on street parking etc aren't going to have the jacks/facilities to raise the car safely to change them. I've had 3 coils fault on my 20k mileage car so far, this could get to be a right faff out of warranty if you don't have the facilities to change them easily.

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 I think it's always worth having a jack and axle stands. I admit, I have an AE86 too, so well used to sticking that up in the air. I have a driveway and container too, though not a garage at my house. I'm sure most people will know a friend with a garage or driveway and likely a pair of axle stands and a jack to sort it. It is annoying though that they do seem to be such a common fault. But you're okay till 5 years are up or 100K, so some time yet for most to go I would say. But, if you can do it from the top, then it's far less of a faff really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob275 1817 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 You don't need to jack the car up to change them, can be changed from the bay though you'd do good to have the hands of a 10 year old. Or more preferably, just a 10 year old. That way you won't get judged. 2 Ade and surrey86 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

surrey86 352 Report post Posted December 13, 2016 That's good to know it can be done without jacking up. Still, it would be nice if Toyota/Subaru could actually fix the design fault with them before owners have to start paying. I've been bitten by a stupid part in a Subaru gearbox previously, some mastermind decided to save a couple yen by changing a metal cog inside the gearbox for a plastic part (cost £1) on my model year, that cost me a grand all-in for a full gearbox rebuild when it stripped out of warranty.
