    Used GTI injectors

    Thanks! I've been chasing my cylinder 2 misfire for months and its basically come down to carbon buildup or injectors, so was just going to do both at the same time. Been curious how others have been doing with those misfires.

    EPC Light after service, including plugs and coil packs

    question: Are you using a borrowed OBD II reader, or are you using an OBDeleven? You should have some sort of pending code if not an active code.

    EPC Light after service, including plugs and coil packs

    Once you can read the codes, you can see which cylinder is causing the issue. It's probably cylinder 2 though. Things to try after moving the coil and verifying its fine, and verifying the plugs are fine. (checking gap per tuner recommendation). Run a can of seafoam through the tank. If...

    EPC Light after service, including plugs and coil packs

    33k miles total on a 2015, or the last 33k miles problem free? With the investment you just put into the coils, I'd pick up an obdeleven tool so you can read codes and figure out issues on your own. Given that the coils were just replaced, its probably a misfire, which you would first swap...

    "Carbon cleaning service was done at 70k" Who did the carbon cleaning? Was it a 3rd party or a dealership? What type of cleaning was done? Most dealerships just do a chemical cleaning which can be a little half assed depending on what they consider "chemical cleaning". You probably need to...

    Mishimoto's MK7 Golf TSI/GTI/R Performance Intake R&D

    Was the intake results with your inlet installed as well? Any particular reason you didn't design an inlet to flow with your intake? Or include it as part of an upgrade package with the intake?

    Hesitation/misfires with steady, light throttle

    EQT recommendation for me when I was having misfires. Dump an entire bottle of seafoam into the gas tank. Run it through. If its a borderline injector it could clean up whatever gunk is causing it to not perform.
