Tick over misfire?
mk4gti-t:
When at a standstill in N my 2005 gti dsg will 'pop' occasionally while ticking over. If I knock it into D with my foot on the brake it ticks over fine..... Any ideas? Checked the usual pcv and all seems OK?
john87:
possibly spark plug(s) need cleaned/replaced?
I would have said coil pack is maybe on its way out, but these usually show a misfire under load, as opposed to when idling.
A scan with VCDS may highlight a misfire

Had mine scanned yesterday I have misfire on cylinder 2 on idle but when under load etc it's fine misfire disappears gonna change plugs before coil pack!

Very common on these. Either dirty valves & intake tract or an injector failing :sad1:

Whats the best way of cleaning the intake system and valves? Are we talking a head off job? :sad1:
