i cant get my mind off the car problem.
i am getting the coilpack from VW in the morning.
Going to replace number 2. If problem fixes, great, but I have to be prepared for if the problem persists. In which case, its the injectors. So I need a plan for that.
I cant drive the car 90 miles to get the injectors installed. But I can drive my oher car to go get them.
Are they easy enough to install so that once i get home, i can do it? I mean, hell, of pro imports installs them for free for locals, then it cant be that hard of an install. right?

since it seems like i DONT have the APR injectors, the injectors might not actually be my problem.
i am betting a good dollar that its bad coilpacks, 1 if not more.
I am buying FOUR tomorrow. Replacing them as they go bad. Keeping themn IN THE CAR.
I'll post tomorrow after I install new coilpacks. Hopefully a dealer has them in stock.

dude it takes 10 minutes TOPS on a cold motor to change injectors (non-apr)
and yes you can DRIVE on them without a chip you'll just end up throwing bank 1 s1 too rich and burn up some extra mpg.
