I just noticed that I am having tons of idle misfires in Cyliders 1-3 and hardly any in 4-6...
Hooked my VAG-COM up today to reset the engine adaptation settings (trying to correct another problem, read ahead for more info), and, as I was scrolling through the measuring blocks, I noticed that I was having many, many more misfires during idle in cylinders 1-3 than 4-6. By many more I mean, for example, during one measuring interval, I had 20+ in 1-3 and 1 in 4-6. My car has no DTC's. What should I be looking at replacing/fixing?
Also, could this be related to the boost problem I wrote about earlier: <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/2009528.phtml">Click Here For That Thread</a>?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I'd swap out the plugs before doing anything...
Big injectors can do this too, but I'm assuming you're stock.
It's nothing to worry about solong as the car runs normally otherwise.

I hope one of those little guys isn't bad, they're like $300+

That's easy, but very unlikely and plugs are VERY easy to do.
My record is 15minutes, hood open to hood closed.
Plus plugs are regular maintenance anyhow. Gotta change em sooner or later.
