South Yorks/North Notts, just south of Sheffield. I've messaged Tfsi_Mike and he's kindly agreed to help with VCDS. He's not too far away so I don't mind a little drive to hopefully shed some light on the misfires.
AJP:
Well, that's yet another day of driving with no misfire. Done about 30 miles, varying from rolling around at low revs to 'spirited'.. Feels bang on.
Why is it tormenting me like this?!

Joking aside, it did seem to be straight after going Stage 2 that all the problems started. Half of me is wondering if it's more fuel cuts. But I really doubt it now the Loba is in, and these are proper misfires rather than the classic fuel cut symptoms I had before.
I guess I'll just have to keep driving it and see what happens. As much as it seems ok, I can't risk any situation where I'd have to rely on full acceleration like overtaking, because if it did suddenly misfire again it could be pretty dangerous.
TFSI Limbo. Oh the joy.

Jokes aside. Yes i recall you mentioning the issue started after stage 2 so Did you fit an RS4 fuel pressure valve on as I read Niki recommends this on stage 2.
