Hi,

For 2 weeks I have a new Hex-V2 and plying around [cool] Idea was to investigate why I had misfires. Last months, I noticed light shocking engine during driving the first 1-2minutes in the cold morning. Only with dsg in 1st gear and between 1500-2000 rpm. Sometimes it takes effort to get the engine to do this, and when I keep going and hold the throttle steady, sometimes CEL goes on. However, also without CEL, I know when I read DTC I see misfires. And I was right[;)]

Misfires occur on cylinders 1,2,3,4. It is possible the misfires occurred also before the tuning, I could not test/have not noticed this. It started during cold weather. The tuner said; first put new sparkplugs & ignition coils + fuel with RON 98. So, I replaced these plugs&coils (all BERU) in December 2018. Not solved. I am fueling octane/RON 95. Yesterday I changed to RON 98. I report back if this results in less misfires.

Logs with vcds (sorry if not all the measurements are useful). I only have adv.meas and I have no:
RFP_AV (bypass valve %)
IGA_AD_KNK[5] (in degrees; knock detection/timing pulled on cylinder)

I think these have different names in my engine/vcds:
Bypass valve f high press turboch turbine inlet: actual value
Test of knock sensors: short trip result-Test_Program_Channel 165 (not sure)

Performance log run in gear3 dsg-manual (I forgot Turbo-sampling):

(click Graph – Cycle bottom axis; to get Time instead of RPM). This one to be sure turbo, air, boost etc. are not suspicious.) Does this one looks OK?

Maybe somebody can help solving the misfire issue. If RON 98 fuel will not help, the second step is walnut cleaning the intake and valves. With a mini camera I noticed light carbon buildup. Some say this can also be the reason. Airfilter, oil+filter is renewed last week.

If I need to make more/other logs/vcds readings, let me know!

I think this engine just has misfires from the factory. I have CHPA + DSG7 in a GOLF VII and have thousands of misfires logged. I am trying to understand when exactly they happen.
The CEL light is never on but the same faults are logged. I cannot feel any misfire with the engine on. I have no tune. Spark plugs have just been changed at 65000km, still 'misfiring'.

This is a log of city + highway driving (from 600s on). Notice there are no misfires at high speed.

This is 70-80kmh driving with a few stops (at the end I was revving the engine while not moving (this creates the most misfires).

I think it only 'misfires' while not moving or coasting?
What else can I check?

Like me you can check sparks plugs and ignition coils. But for me the misfires remained.
I have misfires only under 2000 rpm, when in dsg 1 or 2, driving slowly and steady, with very light pressure on the gaspedal.
I am now on RON98 petrol. Have to try this tank of fuel. After this one antother RON98 refuel. If nothing happens, I think I have to go for a walnut clean.

My plugs are fine, I just changed them. The old ones just had a bit of rust on the threads. The boots were a pain to remove. I have no symptoms of a misfire, the car drives, fine the CEL is not on. I can only see them in the ECU.
It is hard to pinpoint exactly when the misfires happen, I don't know how fast they are added to the counter (it counts misfires in the last 1000 revolutions).
They only seem to happen when at low speeds or in low gears.

Can I ask where you had yours tuned, and if you would recommend it?
