Sick Golf R - EPC and flashing engine lights on (SOLVED: Fuel Injector)
Driving home yesterday my Golf R's engine started missing when placed under load. Thought it may be dirty fuel or a bubble or something as it went away after 3,000rpm, but was still down on power.
Going up a hill a little later the car starts missing and stuttering again with a big drop in power. The yellow engine light started flashing so I pulled over and turned it off to consult the manual as to what it meant. It said that the engine was missing and causing problems with the catalytic converter - take to dealer.
Rang dealer and booked in for Monday morning (it would happen on a Friday). Started off again slowly then the EPC light came on. Drove home very gingerly with everything turned off. Along the way I noticed that the engine started missing when under load below 3,000rpm. Using the paddles I kept the engine above 3,000rpm and it didn't miss. Didn't sound right though and still down on power.
Anything I should tell the dealer on Monday morning to look for, assuming I can get there under my own power?
Thanks Guys
PS: MY10 with 84,000kms on it.
