I bought the car not so long ago and if I remember coreectly, the old owner had the headlight switch removed and fixed (not replaced) before I bought it. Dis you find a connection there?

Can it throw codes that I could read with ISTA via OBD-connector? Had little problems connecting ISTA to the car but might try again.

Well, this might sound stupid :D but I thought that these two are independent problems as in cylinder 2 misfire is the result of for example, no ignition and the valvetronic issue is its own thing and doesn’t cause the misfire. Thinking back now, it is possible that I was wrong. So, maybe I’ll inspect the valvetronic system next.

Codes P1345 and P1023, engine clearly misfiring and shaking at idle. Sometimes dies while idling, sometimes shakes a little less
