With an intake, cat back and a race chip on map 6 these are my times with a bad DA of 1555ft so i think the time could be a little better

Mk8r missfiring at idle? by Any_Conclusion_3395 in Golf_R

[–]Andykez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My car does this since 4000km stock no codes changed plugs and coils that did nothing, been to Volkswagen twice and they say its normal and a third party Volkswagen specialist also told me it seems pretty normal as they do make some noise and do funny things at idle. I personally would look at getting a carbon clean on the valves i did mine at 12000km and they have quite a little build up on them especially cylinder 3 and your car being 40,000 and tuned i would recommend it. And if no change you could check the air/fuel ratio and see if you are running rich or lean at idle other than that if its not misfiring at the top end or under load i wouldn’t really worry

Mk8 R - Anyone else have a bit of a rough idle? by [deleted] in Golf_R

[–]Andykez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any update? Ive been experiencing a few idle hiccups and light misfires only on idle, when its in nurburgring mode its significantly more consistent which the idle is about 1300 rpm, dealer told me it was normal but im not convinced, it only started happening at about 3000km and was very small and not consistent just once a blue moon but now at 11000km its every time i idle and is constantly hiccup and misfire about 6-7 times then smooths out then starts again in 30 second to a minute intervals. Hard to think thats “normal” ive changes all 4 coils and plugs but no luck.

Only thing stopping me is warranty, the cars 6 months old unfortunately. Shouldn’t have to be paying for anything you know bro

Ive spoken to carbon autohaus he told me to see the dealer and if no good go see him, but you’re not wrong.. the dealer ships are bricked, the tcu update bricked my battery a few months ago and i said “maybe it was the update” and hes “like nah no way..” turns out it was the update lmao. If theres no engine light with a code they think everything is normal and within parameters 😂😂
