Mk5 GTI rough idle and misfire
Vag-mk5:
Hello everyone, I have a problem with my gti
If the car stands still for a day and I start it, it has over 30 misfires on cylinder 4 read with VCDS
but only the first 20sec after that nothing more and it runs quietly
and as soon as the engine has reached operating temperature and i brake at traffic lights, cylinder 1 occasionally misfires when idling
so far i have changed the parts and it was still the same error
spark plugs
Ignition coils
Injectors
Compression measurement(good)
Mass airflow meter
PCV
lambda sensors
I really don't know what else to do, please help, thanks :jumping:

The small cam chain and its tensioner.....also the three plastic rings in for the oil pressure to the actuator can all create misfires and rattles.
Vag-mk5:
Yes, the chain and tensioner were also changed 2 weeks ago
And the 3 rings from the housing also changed
GVK:
Any coolant loss/signs of coolant on spark plugs?

no, there is no loss of coolant or it is not noticeable, I changed it completely a year ago and the level is still between min and max
