Bigjeeze Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Check the fuel filter isn't full of water. Check the maf and connections - I am assuming it has enough fuel etc? Quote

gregers Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) its ticking over nicely,but when you go to pull away it seems hesitant and the revs drop,above say 1500 revs it pulls like a train with no problems.i used to be able to gently take my foot off of the clutch and slowly build up the speed going through the gears,but at the moment it dosnt want to build up the speed without pressing the accelorator pedal then it seems to cough unless i ride the clutch and keep the revs up,as said seems to disapere above 1500 rpm, im clutching at straws but could this be the idle control valve(does a tdi have one)?if so would this cause the symptoms im experiancing?or a sensor somewhere?
