Videos of rough running
if you have your volume all the way up you can hear a miss on the revs and sends a vibration through the car etc. Should the revs drop and pick back up like that in one of the vids?

Videos of rough running
Hi people done a thread a couple of days ago because the vehicle rough running, spoke to mark from here great help who suggested doing another compression test to comfirm previous results. As im waiting for a new test kit to arrive i thought id done some quick videos of the vehicle at idle etc so you can hear the problem, hope you all got good speakers the mic on my mobile is crap. Also when these problems happened the oil pressure sometimes dropped then picked back up?? Links: Regards Andy
