Hard starting (especially when hot or cold).
Rough idling and misfires.

If you are installing this yourself:
Software Coding: These injectors have IQ (Quantity Adjustment) codes printed on top (usually a 4 or 5-digit code). This code must be programmed into the Engine Control Unit (ECU) via diagnostic software (VCDS, ODIS, etc.) after installation. If you don't code them, the engine will run rough.
