Literally today my I was driving my Mk6 GTI and all of a sudden it felt horrific to drive, properly lumpy and then the EML and EPC light came on. Managed to limp it into a car park about 500m down the road. I read the code and had P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire.
Swapped the coil from cylinder 3 into cylinder 2 and cylinder 3 was still misfiring, indicating that it’s the injector at fault and not the coil.
He said it was a sticky injector as it was running like shit and loads of white smoke, indicating unburnt fuel, was coming out of the exhaust.
