Right car (gti) has slight misfire at 2k rpm making the co on emissons fail on fast idle changed the plugs and coilpack can still hear misfire any other suggestions as to what to look into? was thinking only other thing may be the coolant temp sensor?

It could be the throttle position sensor mate, the wiper inside gets knackered after a while at part or no throttle,
They mess about with the fueling and all sorts when they are playing up

Have exactly the same problem with my VTS at the moment :(
Would it be the TPS though? :y:

It could be mate, try taking it off and testing it with a multimeter
