Map fine, 4new coil packs, new plugs, new maf.

Issue still there. Booked in at awesome before I smash the car up

 :signLOL: I know how u feel - I feel the same when anything of mine doesn't work correctly either!!
BTW I don't think Revo settings go back to stock if the battery is disconnected??

Who on earth told or taught you too disconnect the battery when changing spark plugs? Sounds like something my apprentice would do.

Oh so disconnecting the battery caused this issue?

That's funny because it didn't cause it the other 3times I swapped plugs. ..or the time I replaced the battery for a new one

Take your sarcastic comments elsewhere. We cant all be wonderful vw techs because we all know how great they are.

Have you checked nothing went down your turbo pipe?  Bit of a pita to get the clamp off. A torch and some long thin tongs might be handy.
VCDS scan whilst running to 5k should show if you have a timing, misfire, fuel pump, etc. matter.
My old stage 2 map would feel like it was pulling back around 5k, changed maps and it was all good.

Hope you get to the bottom of it at Awesome. :happy2:

No sarcasm I simply asked who told you that? No where in my wording was anything saying disconnecting the battery caused this! There's just no need to do it too change over plugs. Take the pill of chill ness mate!
