My GTI MKV story thus far...

Just an update on the car, injector in cylinder 2 failed and set a blinking cel, I took the car to a specialist who installed a new set of injectors and done the carbon cleaning.

Car is now running perfect for the first time since owning it, looking forward to being able to enjoy it

Awesome, glad you finally got it sorted. Enjoy!!

Sounds good...these cars usually have multiple possible causes for issues as do most. Misfires can be plugs, coils, injectors, but can also be carbon build-up on intake valves and more. They can also have near impossible to diagnose issues but these are rare. Glad and hopeful you have no troubles for a good long time.

Thanks Ron,

Absolutely, I was fortunate in a way with mine in that the plugs and coils had been changed and the specialist identified that I had developed a injector code , the dealer I had it in before this changed one injector but it may have been the case where there were some weaknesses in more than 1 of them.

The new injector sent the rest of the system down with it, I feel much better now that I have found a specialist for Gtis in Ireland so I’ll be going there in the future , much better all round service.

I’ve also watched some of the videos you suggested as well, keep up the good work [emoji3]
