Right guys i have had this saga for quite a while now i have no idea what to do, So turning to you guys for advice.

The car is spluttering/miss firing between 3/4k revs, with a load of smoke along with it, had the car on vagcom faults fixed new parts below -

n75, maf, precat lambda, spark plugs, n249 n112 bypassed, sai removed, dv checked and all was well.

So i have no idea what to do?

thanks in advance guys

*Cough*

COIL PACK

*Cough*

;)

It might be difficult with the car being off the road but see if you can get it on vagcom to do a log of misfires (the block number is somewhere on here :lol:)

The cyl(s) with the higher counts will be the one(s) with the shagged coil :thumbup:

Well guys problem solved, thanks for pointing me in the right direction Bill and Pidge.

Swapped over a coil pack from a member off the local car forum in cyl 4 and the car ran as sweet as, oh how i now love boost.

Need to adapt my driving style to suit a turbo car though.

Logs from today show 143g/s @ 6000 rpm, and peak boost as 0.78 bar @ 5200rpm.

Quick conversion leads me to believe the car is running about what it should be power wise now and no faults showed on checking after the run :)
