Misfire under load.
Hi All,
I'm having trouble with my 97 A8 4.2l.
I getting misfire events from VAG-COM:
16688 - Cylinder 4: Misfire Detected
P0304 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
16684 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0300 - 35-00 - -
16688 - Cylinder 4: Misfire Detected
P0304 - 35-00 - -
16689 - Cylinder 5: Misfire Detected
P0305 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
It's doing some strange things...it will start up just fine, idle for about 20 seconds and then just die. I ran a fuel pressure gauge on the line when theis happened and the psi was pretty constant at 55-60lbs, so I don't think this is a fuel pressure issue. I've changed the MAF, all plugs, one coil pack, ICM, Ignition switch, ECU and checked all the vacuum lines. The engine sounds tight and it has a new battery and alternator. In addition, to the above issue, when I drive it, it will shudder under load when it shifts into the higher gears. This shuddering goes away when I back of the gas.
I have some more coil packs on the way to swap out on cyl 4 and 5. In addition, I have a TDC sensor on the way and I will be swapping that out as well.
I wanted to get some insight as to what you guys might think this problem is...
