    Hi everyone,

    I have an A3 which I can’t seem to get running 100%

    Possibly worse when cold but basically lacks throttle response more noticeable in low gears until you touch clutch pedal then power is restored, literally just tapping the pedal cures this issue whilst it’s apparent.

    Most noticeable when going from 1st to 2nd gear, won’t rev much over 2k revs until you tap the clutch.

    Has been to a VW specialist and has had fuel filter, both lambdas and clutch sensor replaced, no codes in ECU.

    Feels like is being limited somehow.

    Hope someone can help thanks

    The BSE is prone to crankshaft speed sensor problems which often do not register as a fault code, we had this last week on a BSE in a Leon which also had a faulty coil pack, also a common problem. As the plugs (especially 2&3) are such a git to chnage, these are often left in for a long time and cause running problems.
