R32 Engine light pops up...

Okay guys, just sat in the R32 as i'm typing this.

Had the codes cleared, but they pop back up AND i pushed some of the coils in tighter to the spark plug as one felt loose. Will check that one again. Anyway here's the code....

Saturday,10,November,2007,18:11:45:04763
VAG-COM Version: Release 704.1

Address 01: Engine
Control Module Part Number: 022 906 032 CP
Component and/or Version: MOTRONIC ME7.1.1G 0001
Software Coding: 0000132
Work Shop Code: WSC 31414
1 Fault Found:

17775 - Cylinder 5 Ignition Circuit: Open Circuit
P1367 - 004 - No Signal/Communication - Intermittent - MIL ON

Readiness: 0110 1001


Anyone know where to start? i've posted the same on vwvortex to see what's mentioned...

Cheers guys.

Have you checked the plug itself? If the gap is wrong or the contacts have degraded, this could be the problem. The spark completes the circuit, so my guess is made on that basis. Often a particular cylinder will have AFR problems in a given engine, leading to excessive wear/problems in that area.

Have you tracked the HT leads back?

The coil itself could be faulty.

Relays and fuses okay?

Excellent cheers, thanks for those suggestions.

The sparkplugs are quiet hard to access and require a fair bit to be removed.

Guess that gives me something to do on a Sunday afternoon. Will post pics for your and everyone else's viewing pleasure.

Try swopping over coil packs 5 & 6, and see if your problem remains with no.5.

If your fault moves to no.6 its the coil pack at fault.

Coil pack's the problem.

Lateknight wins the prize. Good work there.

Have swapped the CP to cylinder one as it's easier to access when the new one arrives. :)
