My VS wagon continues to backfire under load when the car is at operating temp. When its cold it does not backfire.
I have changed the plugs and leads. I have also had the coils and DFI module changed and the car serviced.

Any ideas on why it continues to backfire under load

cheers

Hi there,

Is this an exhaust or induction back fire, i would check the comps hot, and get a exhaust analyzer hook up, if it is running to lean, this will cause a back fire start here.
