hi all. i have a 2015 chrysler ypsilon 1.2 80k miles [based on panda].
it has a slight misfire on pull away, when you shift up, & pulling up to a stop on idle.
i have replaced coil pack, leads & plugs. run some injector cleaner through it.
but problem still there.
i've plugged in my topdon diag machine, but no codes found.
where else should i be looking?
thanks.
 
In the left side (as youface it with thebonnet open) of the plastic inlet manifold, under the air box is the MAP sensor. Oil from crank case breather fills it and along with dirty throttle body caused by same causes this. I removed the throttle body, 4 bolts and a fewpipes and wires and cleaned the inlet manifold with dry, lint freecotton rage. Carb cleaner on the throttle body ans remove and clean map sensor. (1 screw 1 wire)
It made a HUGE DIFFERENCE. if you have the VVT 69 hp car also remove and clean the VVT actuator. 1 stcrew 1wire and cleanwith carb cleaner. I will be suprised if it isnt sorted our and running better than youcan remember. Hold amagnetic probe under all screws to prevent their loss. 1.5 hours going slowly for unfamiliar petson will be plenty. Garage would do in 30 to 45 mins. Good luck.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I can't find any info on Web about it.
But where is the the VVC Actuator located?
Could you maybe add a pic, please?
thanks.
