Howdy.
Having misfire issues with my MK6 Golf GTI at tick over at the minute. Weird fault that only happens at tick-over. Misfires on cylinder one only. Car has 56k.
So far I've done the following:
- Changed spark plugs
- Changed coilpacks
- Changed injector 1
- Checked all wiring
Issue remains, so that leaves removing inlet carbon build up. Had the manifold off doing the injector and there is a fair but not mental build up, cylinder one in particular.
Had notion to use Terraclean. I know the ideal solution is manifold off, and manually scrub the valves, but between buying a house and trying the other solutions above, I'm pretty skint / fed up. Question is, is Terraclean my best option locally, or are there better alternatives out there that won't cost a fortune?
Any input appreciated.
Cheers
