hey guys just wanna ask a question see if any mite be able to help...

my vt has a miss that seems to be WORSE when the car gets hotter, i can go outside in the morning start the car up and i wont feel the miss for maybe 15ish mins and then it just gets worse.

Few things i have done already....

plugs,leads, fuel filter, cleaned throttle body(on car just using throttle body cleaner).

i scanned the car at work and it came up with AFM so i changed that and cleard the code and that works fine now, but didnt help the miss only my fuel economy....what other sugestions do people have? something simple i have missed ?

only other thing im going to do tomorrow when i get to work is a compression test and see how that goes.

thanks in advance.

*edit* its a s2 3.8l v6

check injectors may be a dirty injector if you can check injector pulse as well if not wait on compresion test and go from there process of elimination
