    HELP

    HI Guys.
    My car now idles like a wrx (this is no gee up), Its has lost a lot of power (like a 2 cylinder) and shakes to buggery.
    I have a check engine light but dont have VAGCOM so have no idea what cel its thrown. Im going to guess its my coil packs but this is only a guess. She has 89000 on the clock with stage 2.
    Can anyone shed some light.....Any ideas?
    Jas

    Hey Lucas.
    I was on the freeway sitting on 100 in 5th then put it back into 4th and gave it a boot to over take then lost power immediately and then the CEL was flashing. Now she has the hippy hippy shakes....
