Need help asap guys.

[Dani_B19]

Just pulled up and parked the car up.

Left it 2 mins, got back in to fire it and its running like ****.

Car stinks of fuel and shaking its nuts off, plugged it into vag com and no errors.

Unsure if a coils gone or what but ive only just fitted tfsi coils the other day and done about 50 miles.

Any help? Is their a way to log to see if the coils have gone?

 

[S3 Rav]

Have your coils gone before? Does the car sound like a Subaru? If so probs coils bud.

 

[superkarl]

shaking its nuts off suggests running on 3. check your coils .

 

[Dani_B19]

No the old 1.8t coils never went before.

Sounds shocking, ill be proper p*ssed if it is the coils and awesome will be getting a lot of abuse.

I think it may be cylinder one thats gone.

 

[Sandip]

Blocks 015 - 016 for missfire count Dan.

You could pull each plug on the coilpack one by one to find out which cylinder is down

 

[Dani_B19]

If i pull a coil and its faulty will the car run normal?

 

[S3 Rav]

Well if you pull out the faulty coil the car won't run any different. If you pull out a good running coil then the car will run even worse.

 

[Sandip]

No, if thats the coil what has gone then you'll get no change. If it's ok then it'll sound worse because it's another one that has failed

 

[Dani_B19]

Sandip those blocks are blank!

 

[Sandip]

Sandip those blocks are blank!

Is the car running? It should count missfires on tick over

 

[Dani_B19]

Yup, just saying bit on each row!

 

[Sandip]

That's strange, unless APY's don't let you see missfires?

should look like this

Try pulling the plugs Dan

 

[Dani_B19]

Yeah your probly right mate i dont think they can as it doesnt bring that up.

Going to now, ad call green flag to see if they have a spare coil as i need the car and dont have any spare coils on me.

Fingers crossed it's just a coilpack!

 

[Dani_B19]

Well i feel a right t**t.

Before the guy came out i played with the wires going onto the coils and just left it, guys came out and strated car 3 4 times and fired perfect, looks like the tfsi coils arnt holding the connectors on, doesnt help thatthe connectors are shot.

So where can i get a replacement coil loom?

 

[Sandip]

Awesome sell the coil loom lol

Awesome - Coilpack Wiring Loom Replacement for oil level sensor cars

 

[Gops]

You got me worried about the coils then! Is it just the connectors that are shot?

 

[Dani_B19]
