Is this my coilpacks?

[RedGolfDom]

Driving home from work today and decided to boot it a bit after it was warmed up and my eml flashed and car juddered in second and lost power. So tested it out a bit and it's doing it most times under heavy load. I don't have a juddering idle just under load. Any ideas?

Update plugged into vcds and have misfire in cylinder 1 and 3

A misfire under load usually is coilpacks, or knackered plugs.   Misfires from injectors tends to be most noticeable at idle.

[RedGolfDom]

Thanks man! Read something about a vw recall of coilpacks os that still a thing? If not I'll just buy some new ones and a set of plugs

[shoaybmakda]

I had this - had misfire on cylinder 2. Plugs were changed as part of a service by VW in February - must be packs for me I assume..

[bbfb10]

My injector was knackered. Replaced by Midland VW.

[RedGolfDom]

Yeah injectors would be next but hopefully the coil packs and set of plugs will fix it

[RedGolfDom]

Going to fit tomorrow am I right in thinking it's left to right for cylinder number?

[Mitch H]

Can you not swap the plugs from one cylinder to another and see if the problem follows?
And same with the coil packs

[RedGolfDom]

I could do but if someone knows which is which it would save me probably 30 mins of messing around

I had my coil packs replaced on recall last week. I went in to see about the rust on the wings and they did both for free. Mine is a 56 plate gti. Hope this helps.

[RedGolfDom]

Fitted my coil packs and plugs this morning took it for a spin and all seems good so fingers crossed it's sorted 

[shoaybmakda]

My juddering was intermittent but seems to be happening more often now. Just happened three times today so think I better get it fixed before I make it worse!

[RedGolfDom]

Mine happened every time under load mate. Whether it was the coil packs or spark plugs I'm unsure but get it plugged into vcds and see the exact problem and hopefully it will be as easy fix as mine!
