Unsolvable problem?! 2008 Touareg 2
Hey all-
Brand new to the forum, so apologize if I am posting in the wrong area, or missing relevant information. I am desperately seeking help as I cannot find the issue. Here's the run down. I have a 2008 Touareg 2, V8, 4.2L. I bought it used (~95k miles) and almost immediately had an issue. #5 is misfiring. Since then, it has been in the shop 10-12 times with no resolution. Here is what I have done so far:
Through all this, #5 is still misfiring. The dealership is out of options, suggesting that the ECU is faulty and needs to be replaced ($1600) or they need to swap the #5 injector with #1 to see if that is the issue (~$1000+). Neither of these options sound reasonable because a) the ECU was already tested and b) the injector is brand new, yet the exact problem (#5 misfire) has persisted before and after the injector replacement. What the hell do I do?!? |

You don't say where you live? You need to get your motor scanned (preferably with VAG-COM\VCDS) for any error codes logged in the ecu and post them, that will save a lot of guessing. https://volkswagenforum.com/forum/ne...gnature-34185/ |
