You're STILL driving it? :stupid:

If Hedge & Richwig83 (let alone all the others who have advised you) suggested something to me, I'd do it like a shot. Unbelievable.

Yeah, it's not as if folks are giving what might be termed as debateable advice or trying to impress anyone with knowledge they might not have. It's simples.

No who said its sorted?  :confused:
Theres still white smoke but the misfire seems to be gone
Its over for you kreigal because you dont have no idea so stay out of it just because you dont know anything doesnt mean its over mind your own business
Am asking questions here to get advice not to be told to take it somewhere else just because some of you dont know the answer doesnt mean it has to go to a specialist.
When someone opens a thread and asks for help do you just tell them go here and there no you dont you say what that problem is thats if you know and if you dont stay out of the thread!  :fighting:

with all due respect bud, your mechanic doesn't know what's wrong with it either - if they've never worked on a TFSI engine before (which i believe you may have alluded to earlier) then the advice of key forum members is far more valuable than your mechanic's.

it's like this: if you don't want advice then don't ask for it. if you've asked for it, then listen to it.

Am listening to every advice being given, Getting it checked up somewhere else is up to me and I am considering that option but firstly I want to see if I can bring out the fault myself if not then obviously it would got there anyways?

And the hassle to get my car towed somewhere else is another thing so maybe its easier to diagnose and find the fault myself before taking it elsewere

Is white smoke no associated with water, have you checked your oil cap for sludge? but have blown a headgasket...

As for misfires, if there's a fault code it will be a coil pack, if no code it's a plug...

I also feel sorry for the company that sorts this and then anything to happen in the future, but best of luck...

Oh and please confirm all mods are declared... Thanks.

The next thing I am going to check is the headgasket as adviced by r tech and then the turbo.
There were fault codes yes and coilpacks and sparkplugs have been changed
Yes every single mod declared thanks

Are the turbo's water cooled?

Surely the first thing would be a compression test if this hasn't already been mentioned? Wouldn't bothered changing plugs if there was a fault showing...

Good good.

Good good.

Am not sure how the turbo is cooled tbh

Compression test was done and every cylinder read the same pressure so am not sure what other thngs there are to check. Plugs were pulled out to find that they were badly fouled up and also being the 6 plugs nice time to change to the NKG 7's as i did

Are there any ways to check headgasket or does the engine need to be stripped for that?

that's very rude Sammy  :mad:

This is a public forum and everybody can express their opinions. You have been given plenty of good advise which you totally ignored regarding K04 etc and that most likely caused the issues you're experiencing now

Why the hell anybody would bother giving any more advise since all aready given has been ignored??  :stupid:

Well i'd say that it's not the head gasket then, if compressions fine as where water would come in to the cylinder through head gasket, the pressure would certainly go out... only other thing could be  cracked head allowing water into cylinder on downstroke, does it do it when cold/hot?

If it's white smoke, i'm sure it's water, though if it's blueywhite smoke then it's oil, which if the compression is ok, must be the turbo... whats the history?

Yes all smoke is present when hot and cold.

The smoke is purely white, History of the turbo is from a 2010 S3 with about 9000 miles on it, Or do you mean history of car?

Btw your help has been great you have recieved a thank you

Haha... your welcome, but like everyone else says, get someone looking at it who knows their shizzle, we can only give mere suggestions.... basics are black smoke fuel, white is water and blue is oil...

Am looking in to booking it in to a specalist as we speak anyway but just hoping the problem is found before that!
