I have the epc light on before turning the ignition on. After that it turns completely off. Is this normal?
My epc light has been on and off for the past week whenever it turns on I shut the car off and on again and the light is gone until I idle in some point of my drive. Usually doesn't happen when I'm driving though. Car goes into limp mode after the light appears only allowing me to go above 2400rpms. (2009 mk5 gti) I heard it could be the wiring harness but I sorta want to talk it down with someone with such expertise like yourself if possible before going to buy a whole new assembly. I can't see it being my coil packs because they all were replaced not even 4k miles ago.
What profile did you use ? I’ve selected the OBD-II/EOBD first on the list and the OBD reader isn’t able to connect to the ECU
Hi my car same problem but car is verry shaking obd show cylinder 2 how do you think bro this is ignition coil???????
I just spend $330 at mechanic shop to fix epc on my gti..
Missfire cylinder 4 code, replace coil pack and sparks ,also pcv valve and still on my check engine light.
Gti 2013 mk6
I have the exact same Wolfsburg 2013 with the plaid bucket seats and all and I have the exact same problem and I just hit 70k miles, did you also recently have to replace you vacuum pump? Cuz I did
Great helpfull video. Could i do this job for a VW MK7 1.4 TSI?
I'm praying this is what's wrong. Just started blinking but stopped today. Sounds and feels like misfires and I've had the same problem in a vw before.
The misfiring in your car isnt from your coil pack. {i thought the same when i replaced mine} but these tsi engines have an issue with carbon build up in the engines and needs cleaning out or the car given a good 30miles on the motorway at high revs/speed.
A lot of videos on this subject point to the throttle body as the likely culprit. So the ignition coil is another possibility? My car is at the dealer, what should I tell them to do about this? They have a ticket open with VW whose solutions in the past have not resolved this.
My epc light came on when I cold started my car and everything was stuck the brake, and wheel and everything. I turned the car off and back on and it went away and everything was all good. Drove just fine. Is this something I need to get looked at?
Damn, I have the same exact model same color and everything only mine is DSG and I just started experiencing this problem. I did notice that when I got the vehicle a year ago there was some slight oily film on top of the motor so I knew that there was an oil leak which seems to be common with the mark 5 and Mark 6 from somewhere and I think that might be what is causing the issue with the gunk and everything and I'm very tempted to go ahead and buy the spark plugs this morning and the coils if I can afford it but yes it could be something else maybe a throttle body maybe the fuel filter but, great vid, glad you were able to fix your issue.
How ironic but it didnt help we have a 2010 gti 6 speed manual and we put new coils and spark plugs but it still runs very bad we dont know what else it could be could you give an suggestion?
Great video & straight to the point! Could i do this job for a 2013 audi a8 ? not sure if i have the same issue but have a high idle epc light on studdering acceleration sometimes now sometimes doesnt want to start. i want to do the spark plugs and coils how you did but wonder if battery or throttle body are subject to consider. well done again
