Hi Everyone, I hope someone is able to provide some input on issues that I am experiencing.
2 days ago, I ran fuel cleaner through the fuel system and afterwards, the car started and idled fine for over 30 minutes. I shut it off and cleaned up tools. went to start it back up and was quite hesitant but it started up.

I went for a drive and the engine was misfiring badly. constant bucking and misfire, the misfire were quite violent. anyway, the next day I scanned the codes(which I do not have to post because I cleared to see if it came back).

the codes were random/mult cyl misfire, cyl 5, cyl 6, and cyl 7 misfire detected. the next set of codes were fuel rail system pressure too low..
but at idle the fuel supply pressure is around 6.xBar and the High pressure rail is around 25Bar with the in-tank fuel pump at 52%

so I was going to take off the intake and test resistance on the injectors as I though maybe it was a stuck or failed injector. but I started at the HPFP.. I disconnected and disassembled these, cleaned and reassembled and put back on engine. the Cam followers showed no sign of excessive wear.

engine start up fine. still misfired slightly but cleared up for the most part. this time it felt like an ignition related misfire. scanned code and showed only cylinder 5. so down to one cylinder. I went for a drive to see if it would clear up.. which it didn't. the next code that came up was fuel rail pressure too high, outside spec.. I'm like WTF..

so I cleared it. ran adaptation(took 40 minutes to do this because it kept timing out).

so I let the car sit again with key off. about an hour later went to start it up and same thing misfire, cyl 5 and disables cylinder. with fuel rail pressure too low.. when the car warms up to Operating Temp, I shut engine off and back on and idles fine, drives fine under partial throttle. under WOT will hiccup at higher rpm.

so when engine is cold its constantly misfiring. when warm/hot it misfires less and idles normally.

I'm having hard time trying to figure out where I could start to look at to clear this up, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Auto-Scan below from this afternoon

Hello,

I would remove the spark plugs, have a look at what the show. Are they wet, carbon fouled, etc?

The last time(2 weeks ago) I saw the [Cylinder Disabling] fault code was on a CCTA, the #4 injector was leaking, causing a misfire and low rail fuel pressure.

So I would imagine the chemical you added may have done some damage to the High Pressure Fuel system. I would recommend NOT to use any 'injector' cleaners.

They do make very inexpensive USB mini cameras that you can buy and use to see inside the combustion chamber to see if the fuel injector is leaking.

---> I would NOT drive or start the vehicle anymore than needed, you may be causing damage to the cylinder bores by washing down the oil with raw fuel and the excessive fuel in the exhaust could cause catalytic converter damage!

Hope this helps,

drpeter

Compression check all cylinders for comparison.

Ground issues across banks for all coil packs insufficient.

Plugs damaged , coil packs or fuel injector damaged. w
Swap component locations to see if miss moves for isolation tests verifying problem.


FYI: Fuel to high DTC can be from a cylinder shut down raising overall rail PSI.

In order to counter act the washing of the rings in the cylinders.
Consider filling oil in them and cranking over, then let them sit for a while to reseal the rings.


Installing hot heat range spark plugs for winter operation ( one range hotter ) in all the VW-Audi NA engines makes a significant improvement in starting, and corrects misfire issues.

checked plugs and swapped cyl5(misfiring cylinder) as well as swapped coils and misfire constant with cylinder 5..

the misfire almost disappears when engine has fully warmed up and I shut the car off and back on. it will misfire under load and anything above partial(say 25% throttle)...

the fuel pressure code I get is low pressure..

but when going in "OBDII" function for generic OBD scan I get a pending code for n276 mechanical fault fuel pressure regulator... but it wont show this in the engine module 01 for fault scan or even in autoscan..

suppose because its pending??? but then I thought it would still pop up but say not confirmed

Dude what did you expect from OBD ( JEW )? WTF are you in there for anyway when you have VCDS? ;)

Carbon build up requires remediation?

Fuel PSI sensors are a known issue and lift pumps also shit the bed often.

Be sure to check FPR incorporated fuel filter.

Jack I hope you are not referring or labeling me as a "JEW" I know this is a forum for which users and enthusiasts alike can join and help each other out. we have never met so there's no reason to start off as that...

If you read my post, I was in VCDS first then went to OBD to see if it saw something different, and it did. it showed a pending fault for n276 mechanical malfunction. VCDS engine module fault code did not show this..

so why should it be a problem to exhaust all possible OBD diagnostics available to me to scan the vehicle?

had carbon cleaning done 2 months ago(~1500MILES) via Media blasting.
on a second note...

yesterday afternoon. from cold start... the engine did not misfire as it has been. idled and drove fine from partial to ~50%-75% throttle. once it warmed up I did a WOT. first time to redline drove fine. second time it hiccupped a few times but not enough to log a misfire or any other fault... third time it triggered the EPC light and went limp... scanned car, fuel pressure system low again, but no misfire present..

I am putting this in BOLD to make it known... I would run MVB logging and or ADVANCED MEASURING DATA LOGGING, but for another issue I am experiencing which is noted in another thread on this forum, is that I cannot get a constant connection between VCDS and the OBD system.. I am experiencing too many communication errors for it to be consistent.

Nope...........Look up my name........

It tells me your car is not stock "possibly"......profile like "TOFAST2BELAST" is a sort of........a tell.

Maybe poor ground issue to coil packs ......I recommend you overlay, and run redundant grounds to both, at each coil pack to battery.

car is completely stock... other than exhaust but everything else is completely stock. my name has nothing to do with how my car sits.

you do have a cool name, but get ur connectivity issue fixed and get some logs of fuel trims on short and long, cold and hot. what kind of air cleaner and have u cleaned the mass sensor. can u explain how u cleaned the intake. also do a log of the air mass. u state fuel press at idle can u give us at full throttle. im thinking u have a bad injector or ur intake needs to be recleaned

So what was the reason for fuel cleaner and was this done only in rail or intake system or both and with what?

To have codes in OBD2 and not VAG side is not right or something is FOD........in stack.

cleaning thru the intake is a big gamble considering how much an engine could cost. now their even selling one for diesel intakes. what do u think jack

I like cleaning with non flammable biodegradable solvent mixed with water in the diesels........ that turns the carbon into a soft moveable material through the combustion chamber,........ one that the valves can deal with and not get stuck open during operation.

I have had great luck with specific things I first experimented with on the ALH and now use on PD and CR engine's.

Never have been fond of a flammable material, or pooling in intakes with fluids to bend a rod.

I did like walnut shells, however, rarely see it done anymore, and isn't so great for flaps.


Manual cleaning is the best.........and often is met with apprehension for DPF or this carbon remediation by the lazy.
Then there are the people brainwashed by the magic oils, creams and chemicals.

If the idiots are that lazy and want to jerk off with the gels and creams, to only want an OBD answer; further thinking VCDS should do this or the forum collective.......... than get the fuck out of the business and forum asshole......I say fuck'em.

here is a one log I did. of you look at the WOT pass, in the logs between marker 3 and 4 starts showing difference between requested and actual pressure. but what I noticed is when it reaches rev limiter, the pressure resumes to around what's requested..

in spots where Mass airflow reads "0" is when it tries to re-establish communication with modules.. this is the connection errors I have when data logging..
The low pressure side, seems consistent so, is there a way to rule out the high pressure fuel sensor?

What is the status of the lift pump.......the screen, and FPR with filter for volume tests?

Mechanicals need to be observed and compared to logs to see if a deviation exists to diagnose a PSI sensor or just change it.

Ok so this past weekend I replaced cylinder 5 injector(it was wet at the port) which solved the misfire issue,

Also replaced the rail fuel pressure sensor. Got a code saying it was defective. Had bad gas leak so took it apart again yesterday and found that I forgot to tighten one of the rail lines..

So got it all back together. Last night started up fine ran thru readiness in basic settings and it was all ok.

Went for test drive and all was good.. So I thought.

This morning, back to hard start like it did before.. Still no codes..

About 20 min of driving the CEL pops up and says fuel rail pressure too low. I'm like wtf why yesterday it was good then today it's doing same crap as before..

One thing I noticed when doing output tests yesterday was the N276 valve was not clicking on drivers side(U.S. Spec, Bank 1?)
Anyway didn't think much of it til this morning, I ran it again and no click.. So I'm pretty sure it's the Regulator valve is stuck open.. Hence low pressure... So looks like I will be getting a new pump.

Ok well here's another update. I had ordered both HPFP pumps(got a good deal on both) on Wednesday of this week but they haven't arrived yet. On Wednesday evening, I took off both N276 valves and swapped them around Bank1<->Bank2, to see if it was wiring issue or in fact a dead solenoid.. Swapping them confirmed dead solenoid.

so I was going to disassemble the solenoid even further. well, as I was about to press it out of the nut, I heard it click so I stopped going any further and see if it was going to work again. So I pushed on the valve part and it moved and sprung back. so I plugged it back in the car and started output tests. It was clicking once again. I reinstalled it in the pump, ran output tests once again to confirm all was working..

Cleared the codes... started the engine... It started up normal once again!!! I ran through basic settings to set readiness. The fuel system adapted with message "system ok".. I went for test drive which I was kind of heavily footed and everything seemed normal. Yesterday, the cold start was good, drove normal, and my MPG seems to be normal(for what nonexistent the 4.2 would provide).

Did some logs, requested vs actual fuel pressure confirms all is working once again..
NO more CODES or ISSUESS YAY!!!:)..

Sadly now I have 2 fuel pumps that I don't need..
