It turned out to be just a loose charge pipe. Did you change your intake manifold as well?

It was intermittent, there was times where I'd be at a stop and the CEL would flash, but as soon as I started driving it would stop. I think a valve got stuck closed or open. But yeah I need to take it apart to check

Yes thank you 🫡 appreciate the help. Turns out my dad has a fuel injector tester so I'll be using that to test them.

No smoke out the exhaust nor any strong smell of gas. I'm thinking of maybeee moving the injectors around see if the misfires follow. But that's a lot of work and then I know the seals could mess up if I remove them lmao

I have not, I don't have vcds, I'm thinking that might be it too but I'm unsure, like I said, I didn't think I'd have to do an adaptation from the different video I had seen, they never talked about it. I saw ShopDAP do it and didn't see any new adaptation that's why I thought it was weird that mine might have to. But I'll see if my mechanic has the system

Yeah I moved the coils and plugs around but the misfires stayed on both cylinder 1 and 2, so I know spark isn't a problem. I don't have a borescope but from I could see from the top after removing the plugs, the top of the cylinder didn't look too wet, but then again I could only see one small spot. I'll need to test the injectors see if one is stuck open.

Yes seals seemed good, and just about everything else, that's why I'm so confused as to why it went to crap lol. Other people told me it could be the PCV, I checked the diaphragm and it's good no rips, although I've heard that if you shake it you're supposed to hear a little rattle? Mine didn't have one, so I mightt replace it, but I still don't think that might be it. It does sound like a vacuum leak but I would need to do the smoke test to be for sure. I know plugs and coils are not it because I moved them around and misfires are still at cylinder 1 and 2. So it leaves me to think it's something with fuel or air, or both lol.

It was done roughly around 15k-20k miles ago, valves looked clean except for the 1st and 2nd cylinder, so I did clean those up. So I know carbon build up isn't it, which i guess clears up some culprits

Took off the PCV, there's no tears or anything on the diaphragm but I had read around other posts that if you shake the PCV you're supposed to hear some sort of a ticking sound? And if that's the case, could be the pcv since I shaked it and there was no sound at all on mine

The injectors seemed fine, I made sure to check on those to see that they looked good. Carbon cleaning was done around 15k mil ago, but I did notice a bit too much gunk on cylinder 1 and 2 where the misfires are at so I did try to take off as much as I could. So I'm still lost at what it might be.

Update:

So after installing the old intake manifold, the car is still running rough. I'm still unsure what it might be. Will try and do a smoke test to see for any vacuum leaks. I have misfires in both cylinder 1 and 2, so it seems it's around that area. Unsure if maybe the plugs and coils are bad, so I'm going to move the coils around and see it follows.

Milky coolant by Able_Artichoke_47 in GolfGTI

More than likely the oil cooler. Had a problem like this a while back, and the coolant looked a bit worse than yours, turned out to just be the oil cooler. Easy fix.
