Good evening all.
I put my food down in 2nd earlier and the car went into limp mode. I pulled over and left the car running for a couple of minutes,and then decided to head home.I drove off and it was fine,boosting as normal etc. Stuck Vagcom on when I got back and got the following:

Misfires-a-plenty? I have cleared the codes and they haven't returned after a little 3 mile test,but what would cause this? I have had all new sparkplugs and coilpacks approx 3 months ago,and the car is only used at weekends. It' a BAM engine if it helps.
Also on a slightly different topic,I had a look at block 010, Ignition Timing Angle, which was all over the place when driving,but I seem to remember reading that it shouldn't go above 10BTDC,mine I have seen in the 30's. I don't know what it all means but couldn't someone tell me if this is normal or I need it looking at?
This has prompted me to become one of the registered users of VCDS so I am just waiting for my email from Rosstech now.
