    Hi all
    Got some codes on my car - 2000 Pontiac grand prix GTP
    Codes:
    P0133
    P1573

    I drove the car and then it had no ignition for a few seconds and then all be normal.
    After this I've got the codes and the computer goes mad.
    The TCS light was on everytime the computer shows only 0.00 in the fuel consumption.
    So then I thought this must be the igition coils.Because I had before some problems with them.
    I changed all on the car and the ignition coils also back to stock the car ran great no problems no code.
    I changed them back and deleted the codes and now we will see if all is ok.
    The coils I had where the ZZP coils (4 years old).
    The coils I have now are these:

    Hope these are original coils because these are the best

    Neither of these codes are related to ignition coils. P1573 is lost comm to the EBTCM and P0133 is slow response from an O2 sensor. You may have two issues or a bad PCM. As for the eBay coils, they are not stock and stock are the best. Even stock coils from a junkyard will be better than any other brand.

    Trying to stay pretty close to stock now. Just a few bolt-ons for fun.
    Trying to keep it alive, pretty, and fun.
