Misfire? Or something else? On my 2002 Ws6...
Generally, and mostly when its cold, I will feel in my feet through the floorboard what feels like a misfire. It's like I feel the pop that you can normally hear through the exhaust when you have a misfire. Its random but consistent when the car is cold. I do not hear it though in the exhaust like one normally would. Sounds totally normal. Also the car has a very minor shake like one would expect when getting a misfire.
I'm also not getting any codes from this. Might this be a misfire? Or is it something else? Once it warms up I do not feel that popping, but the car does still have that very faint/minor shake.
Also I only get about 130 miles to a tank, so something is definitely wrong, and I have no idea if they are related.

Something is deffinetly causing it to dump fuel if you're only getting 130mi to a tank. Clean the maf. That can cause problems without codes. Could be injectors sticking open. Without a scan tool to watch them you won't be sure about the injectors.

Ill have a go at cleaning the MAF today. I'm already down to 5/8 of a tank and only at like, 50-60 miles or so. Ugh.
And I took my car to a shop, they hooked it up to their injector cleaner machine. Still getting that popping feeling in the flooboards. They couldn't find a misfire but I'm not sure they went from a cold start. It was hot as hell yesterday so it probably didn't have much time to go cold by the time I got their.
