    have a 2005 3 cylinder polo, just bought it yesterday! as i drove away i put the foot down and the eml came on and it wouldnt rev past 2000 rpm, managed to drive it a couple miles taking it easy. stopped, restarted and it drove 18 miles no problem at all with no light on.

    ive attached a file of the fault codes. i cleared the faults, let it idle and took it for a quick drive and no codes returned. i also swapped cylinder 1 and 3 plugs and pencil coil.

    codes havnt returned yet but it sometimes cuts out when stop at junction or if i rev it hard the revs either drop to around 300rpm then recover or it cuts out.

    any helps appreciated, thanks


    edit: it has a fair bit mot, but the previous owner did mention that the mot tester said it will need a cat for next mot, the emmisions do smell rich

    Coil pack be first thing to check.
    Swap out 3 with 1, clear codes, start engine, recheck for codes. If fault follows cylinder, renew coil as required.
