Hi, I just picked up a 2011 GTI 6MT on Saturday, I got a good deal on it but it has a CEL that flashes at idle and then stays on solid. It it always cylinder 2 misfire. It has a few mods (3" exhaust/dp with no cat, injen intake and APR stage 1). Here is what I have done so far:
- Replaced intake manifold
- Cleaned intake ports/valves with walnut blast
- Replaced PCV valve
- Replaced coils and spark plugs
- Checked compression (140 psi in cyl #2), little low but ok
- Checked for vacuum leaks using brake clean.
When I am giving it gas and driving it feels find, but at idle it always has a miss, you can feel it and it immediately sets a code for the misfire. I am starting to think a possible faulty injector causing a lean condition in #2 at idle. Any body have something similar happen or have any ideas? I might swap the injector to another cylinder today, I just don't want to keep pulling the intake manifold off.
