is this a vrs ?

if its a 1.4 TFSI it could be either faulty coil pack (as there has been a manufacture error on some early ones) or the poorly made OEM spark plugs as they are really prone to wear / fouling either way please dont drive this car as you can run it out of timing thus destroying your poorly engine

yeah the service campaign for the oil change and software. Had it done a while ago.

This is a 1.2 tsi engine, doesnt have individual coil Paks. Known problem on early 1.2tsi is heat damage to plug leads. Revised design has protective trunking.

If you read up im talking to the chap with the vrs
