Hey guys another missfire problem.

I have a S2 Gts-t was told by two different shops that it wasn't coils and also had a new cas put in which fixed nothing i had the ecu gone over and everything was fine i had new plugs put in and had the mechanic look over afr, is there anything i can do to try and fix this problem. Cheers

Interested in what you did to resolve this issue?

simple fix, just pull the coil packs off and wrap some flame resistent electrical tape from the plates at the top down to the rubber that clicks onto the top of your plug. it will make sence wen you pull them off. obviestly this is a quick fix. new coils are the textbook way to rectify the problem....

hope that helps.

what boost? could be hitting fuel cut but im guessing you have allready thought of that... check the coils yourself, cracks are barely noticeable and will not show that they are stuffed wen doing a resistance test on them. if you pull em off you will see a series of plates, cracks occor in the plastic just below that, its caused by heat under that valley cover that comes on the 20's and 25's from the factory....

worth a try before spending much loved coin trying to diagnose the prob!

hope it helps

cheers

its pretty easy mate, if you pull 1 off you will see, its just got a series of plates and a plastic box (kinda) underneath. whem lookin at mine the hairline cracks were in the plastic bit. doesnt really matter where you tape up, as long as you can get em back on and bolted down. its really just a quick fix to find out if you need new coil packs!

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
