I didn't fit one, as from what Steve was telling me (I could be wrong) it sounded like something that would help a little bit, rather than being essential. At the time we agreed that we'd fit one the next time the car was in. In hindsight, I wish I had, as it's one more thing eliminated from troubleshooting at the very least.

It's a shame you didn't have one fitted :-/ as ive got one ready to fit when doing the RFD and carbin clean this week if I get the time. it's going to be a pin but may as well get it done once it's all open. Hopefully you'll solve the mystery of the misfire.

Well if it does turn out to be an injector it'll be the perfect chance to stick an RS4 valve in!
Yeah it'll be a pain, but worth it. The way I see it, do as much as you can while you've got the inlet manifold off, then you've got peace of mind and won't have to worry about pulling it to bits again.

RS4 is no benefit on K03.... at all.

Dan, we've been there and done this in another thread. Please don't take this the wrong way, but if one of the best TFSI specialists in the country tells me 'A' and a guy on a forum (as knowledgeable as you are) tells me 'B', I know which way I'm siding.
