So it turns out my coil popped up causing the misfire.....

all my 1.8T's had bolt down packs previously so I never had this happen. Don't know why it happened - but it's pretty common from what I hear. The connector doesn't appear to "snap" on very well either - although this was a 5 minute thing this am.

Glad it was a quick (and cheap) fix.

Mine did that too.

Its a great relief to see that all you do is push it down other that a ton of work to fix it.
