Tomsk Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Had engine fault codes read after development of a slight misfire and the engine light coming on Looks like I need a new coil pack on cylinder 2 and at least one post cat O2 sensor.

I would just change the coil pack first as the misfire may be giving you the duff O2 sensor code. Tomsk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The O2 sensor fault has popped up before (without the misfire) but this time it's reporting "no signal". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L333JSA Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Killed a tyre.... On the plus side the launch that caused that from the lights was particularly epic leaving 3 lads in an S3 for dead. The next set of traffic lights I got the 'what the f**k is in that mate'.......my reply...'a diesel'.....all three of them virtually in unison said 'f*ck off'!! Then came the comments...'my GTI would kill that lad'.....'is it mapped lad'......'what powers it running lad'.... Anyway 18s back on the time being until I get 2 new rear 19s next weekend.

Thinking that if I'm removing the post cats can I remove the twin pipes when I had my resonator delete done and put new pipes from just before post cats to where middle box was removed Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 4 Beta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiksilver_TR Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Booked it in to have the front windscreen replaced/repaired following an Audi cutting me up and throwing up the gravel from the center of the road and chipping the screen. Luckily no damage to my fresh paint, only the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomsk Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Fingers crossed misfire's been fixed. Not a coil pack, but a split in the lower intake bellow. Still needed a new O2 sensor though :-( I now realise I may have been running with the misfire for longer than I thought, as its been ages since the engine felt as "pirky"! Doh!
