right ok i will take a pic later

mine must idle high mine is at 800rpm hot and 1000 when cold i was told by a garage to check the spark plugs for oil could be leaking in not likely on a car with low mileage but if its over 120,000 could be something like that saying that i was loosing oil cus a no-return valve on a breather hose broke
-
oh right ok i will go ask them i am not sure what i have really i thought they had to be different cus otherwise they would go over the windscreen.

hi people well my vr6 has a slight missfire which i don't seem to be able to fix but it is starting really badly it always has done it turns over well (as far as i can tell) but it splutters alot befor firing up it does start it turns over for about 10 seconds. i have had the coil pack done spark plugs done and ht leads and the fuel pump done and temp sender to try and fix it but doesn't seem to have done anything anyone else had this problem any welp is great Tim

i had a heavy missfire on mine new coil pack fixed it but i had new ht leads spark plugs and a breather hose broke sucking a load of oil into the engine i have the same spark plug problem as you blackcat i was told its more than likely a leak in the bottom and i would need a new engine at the minute its fine slight missfire but i still pulls alot also i was told the K&N induction kit is too small for a vr6 this is by tsr performance so got a bigger one on root
-
cool i will have a look tomorrow its still not starting properly could it be the starter motors a little iffy?
-
right been to tsr performance it was a new coil pack and the other thing is he said the k&n induction kit is to small so i have a bigger one comming soon by ram air also he said the spark plugs are sooting up with oil he said it needs a new engine! for 3 grand i think that can wait i think its soot left from the oil leak in through the breather hose but he said its more likely to be the bad wear on the pistons or something leaking oil but its alot better but is still missing slightly but so small im not gunna worry pulls like anything again so i will wait a year and have a new engine then if its that bad. thanks to everyone

i have had the temperature sender done and had it pluged in several times but vw don't have the information on the corrado on there computer which is stupid in my opinion it starts with a white smoke (smells really petroly) it does idol hasn't stalled yet and i have a coil pack i thought that could be the startig problem but i was also told it could be the injectors that are dodgy its only one 80 000 miles when i took it on a rolling road for a laugh he said it had a missfire mid throttle probably the injectors but i don't wanna have them changed if thats not it cus that will be alot of money
