    Golf 2.0L Misfiring

    Hey guys.

    Recently my car was misfiring, so I took it my mechanic and he scanned it for codes and found out it was misfiring in cylinders 2 and 3. He tested the coil pack and the leads, and found that they were fine and found a problem with the spark plugs, so he replaced them and everything was fine for about 3 weeks. After the 3 weeks it started misfiring every now and then, but now it is doing it very regularly.

    Just wondering as to what your thoughts on the problem could be.
    I know there are many other things that can cause misfiring so just intrigued on other people's opinion or past experiences.

    Thanks,
    Bruce93

    I had a failed ignition module yesterday. It caused cylinder 3 to go down. Coil packs looked to be the culptit at first.
    I'm not sure if your model has this thing. Check if there is wiring going to the air box or not.
