Suzuki Splash – Diagnosing Intermittent Misfires With No DTC’s What's the problem? This Suzuki came into the workshop with an intermittent misfire. It wasn’t evident on tickover or when I'd snap the throttle while stationary. But when I drove it any distance, I could feel it. Okay, so that's the customer's complaint confirmed. The next step was to connect a scan tool and check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). No codes? Despite the misfire, no DTCs were stored. With no codes, a different diagnostic approach will be required to prove the fault. I'm suspicious of an ignition coil but I want to prove it to be sure.
