Hi
I just changed no2 injector on my Mk6 Gold with a recon injector. I have 4 cylinders again! Hooray :)
How important is the coding of the new injector? Seems to be running OK but I don't have any software or leads.
I'll book it in for 5 mins somewhere if the coding is super important. Just begrudge overpaying someone to type a few letters onto a keyboard (I m from Yorkshire!) hehe

I have a junkyard injector in #3 and have swapped ecus with immo deletes. I don’t get any codes. Do what you wish in regards to coding but my CJAA runs runs just fine otherwise.

Most likely if you dont code it, Youll get imbalance faults for that cylinder.
Since installing the tune I have a wider imbalance between all 4 cylendars, but the spread of all 4 zero out (average) each other. Is that normal? Would you say the closer the better the better the power/mpg or not enough to matter.
