Hi guys, I am seeking some help...
I have a stage 2 GTI (MRC), ran the map for 35k miles +, no expenses have been spared with the car. Intake, Intercooler, Coils, Plugs, Sports Cat downpipe, Catback, engine mounts etc..... every precautionary step has been taken.
One night EPC light came on, misfire detected in cylinder one. Got the car recovered to a local VW specialist..... 5 weeks later injectors and plugs were switched and the car was fine. Picked the car up and first hill it started misfiring again!
Bought coil packs, and then bought NGK competition plugs. Car drove absolutely fine for 20/25 miles before it decided to misfire again. Still misfire in cylinder 1, there is a slight rattling sound coming from the engine too. I think it could be the timing chain, but I have hit a brick wall. There was a little bit of oil on the first plug, and it was toasted after 10 minutes before I swapped them for the upgraded NGK ones. I am already over £600 down, and my car is still off the road. The car will drive, but it is constantly misfiring, and is shaking. I am not sure if anybody can guide me in the right direction please
