Un well roc.

Hoping someone could shed some light on this. Car went very strange today during a drive. Pulled up after at some traffic lights and she seems to be misfiring. Doesn't sound well at all and struggles to get going with the dsg. It's been revo remapped recently but I don't feel like this is the issue.

Someone on another forum suggested it could be cool pack but I am clueless

Certainly sounds like a faulty coilpack. Pretty common issue on petrol VAG cars. A new one will set you back around £30 from dealer.or TPS.

Cheers mate. Is there an easy way for me to test without taking it a dealer?

[Cuprabob]

Only if it's misfiring on idle. If it is, you disconnect each of the 4 coilpacks one at a time and when you remove the faulty one there is no diference to.the idle. When you remove a good one tje engine gets rougher as it's.losing a cylinder.

If it's only misfing under load, you need VCDS to.identify which cylinder is misfiring.

Other option is to change all 4 coilpacks.

If your changing the coil packs, might as well put uprated spark plugs and R8 coil packs in as well.

Ok cheers ill give that a go! Car just feels really wierd to drive at the moment so want to sort it quick.

You read my mind mate haha - resisting the "add to kart" button till I diagnose it properly

[Phil]

Not coilpack sadly

[salsajoe]

Plugs would be my next action unless you have access to VCDS and can diagnose more fully.

Mechanic plugged in his machine and was my 3rd coilpack! Shame manual testing didn't show this! Thanks for all ya help guy!
