2.0ltr tsi Engine problems while local garage shut HELP :(

Post by Adsthetics »

A few weeks ago I had my epic light come on and go into limp mode I changed a coil as had a spare one in the glove box from previous owner.. 2 weeks after same thing happened so I brought another coil and changed it along with 4 spark plugs.. car was extremely smokey to begin with but after driving round the block for 10 minutes it cleared up and pretty much went back to normal for a few days however when the car was hot it would occasionally hesitate and sometimes go back into limp mode. ran fine again once cooled down. a few days ago the epc light and engine management light came on again. I have replaced all three of the other coils today and sounds extremely boggy and hesitating at low revs. Once I put my foot down and after the turbo kicks in it delivers power as normal but continues to smoke.. my local garage isn't open due to the current situation.. any ideas guys?

Do you know anyone with diagnostic equipment. If not you can buy Carista. It will do advanced diagnostic and some coding.

It’s proven very good as a tool in the past for me.
