In this specific case, once the engine cover and the intake manifold were removed, it was noticed that one of the spark plugs was not screwed well and the exhaust gases partially came out of the spark plug seat which, as you can see, has blackened. The problem of irregular combustion can also depend on the spark plug cables. If you need to replace them, it is advisable to remove one cable at a time and replace it with a new one, avoiding to detach them all together. Also note the different length of each cable depending on the spark plug to which it connects. Car Model: Audi A3
