Got another problem that hopefully someone knows what it is.
Basically the Polo (100bhp tdi sport) is losing engine power for a split second. Last night was the first time it happened to me, was going up a slight hill in 3rd around about 25mph and there was no power at all, all lights were still on, radio etc and there was no funny noises. As i said its a split second, you dont even have time to take your foot off the accelerator so when the power comes back you get thrown back in your seat.
It happened to my gf last week and she was going about 70mph when it cut out for a split second.
Does anyone have any ideas? dirty maf maybe?
Oh another problem this morning!
Gf started the car and it was idling and then it conked out. I think another trip to the garage awaits :(
See when they clear codes from the ecu thats only really a temporary fix isnt it? surely if a error code appears on the ecu then there must be a reason for it, is that right?
