    Is the bad fuel their excuse to attempt to make you pay for the injectors under warranty.

    Dealership scanned the engine light which was logged as a misfire but apparently they cant tell which cylinder it was?
    Cars due for 60k service in bit over a 1000km so apparently no point playing with sparkplugs/compression testing now.


    Heres a few year old video of the car sounding like a trabant

    The strict advice I had from VW/Skoda Australia is that the car was not to be driven if the ECM light came on. They said : call the tow truck.
    If you have an ECM issue, they must check compression - if they'd pulled the head on mine earlier, I probably would not have blown a piston...

    The advice in mine was to turn the car off and call Skoda Roadside Assist.
    Yours does sound broken though...
