Title: Jerking problem - please help
Post by: hillary2005 on 27 May 2009, 20:00

Not had my golf long now but its started jerking

It only ever does it when its warmed up and then starts jerking and hesitating quite badly. After a second or 2 it sorts itself and goes again but everytime you slightly move the accelerator it does it again

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on what it could be?

Thanks

petrol filter maybe blocking... spark plugs nackerd.... could be anything really, best start at cheap things tho, u should get one of those Vag-com as it could show up a problem... worth a try.
