I was driving around and my CEL started to blink. I was still getting good boost about 16-17 (im stage 1+ unitronic chipped). I changed my spark plugs to NGK BKR7E and i think that this might be a blown coil pack. The car pulled but it staggered / was unresponsive or would pull then not then pull. I was wondering if anyone had a similar problem or would know what it could be. I plan to get in touch with a friend who has vag com and hopefully run it tomorrow then ill know more. Let me know what you guys think. Motocrossx23 was with me when it was happening and drove it around the block a few times, so we’re just looking for confirmation that this is what it could be.
Thanks Pat
also the car isn’t going into limp mode. the CEL is just flashing.
Yeah my input, the car pulled hard to 16 psi but wouldn’t boost past that, leading me to believe it was either a random misfire or blown coilpack. It wants to boost but staggers everytime. The CEL flashes but doesn’t stay on
i think i replied to you on DITB, go get 4 coils @ VWOP, they’re $32 ea.
yes you did lol thanks again for the quick help.
if you need vag-com give me a call. Im in Amherst at UB South.
I probably have some spare internal ICM coils laying around as well.
