2001 jetta check engine light-cylinder misfire code
Had my jetta for about 6 months now,has always ran fine.Today I drove to work,went to lunch and it drove like normal.After work she fell on her face when I PULLED OUT ON TO THE HIGHWAY.The engine check light came on and she was underpowered and accelerating rough.I went straight to Autozone and had them check the codes:cylinder misfiring...................bad gas,plugs,????I put some heet gas dryer in and some more fuel,plus some fuel inj. cleaner.If this does not help,plugs next?Or what next?Only jetta I ever had so help.It is the 1.8 turbo gas.

Probably something in the ignition. Start with the easy solution the spark plugs and let me know if that doesn't work.
|
What is recommended?NGK Platinum
|
If you want the longest lasting get Bosch irridium +4's (pricey). For performance get Bosch platinum +4's (I have those in my car).
|
Thanks will see what I can find.
|
What about an NGK iridium plug?
|
If you want to put Japanese plugs in your German car go for it. They should do fine.
|
ooops!
|
I was just kidding.
|
I put in the plugs,went smooth.Still runs rough but not as bad.Check engine light came back on.Next?help?
