2Common causes
- Worn or fouled spark plug in cylinder 7
- Faulty ignition coil for cylinder 7
- Faulty fuel injector for cylinder 7
- Vacuum or intake air leak
- Low fuel pressure

3Can I drive?
Drive gently to a workshop. If the check-engine light is flashing, stop as soon as it is safe and have the car towed: a flashing light means the misfire can overheat and damage the catalytic converter.
