Post by: markmrmark3 on 01 June 2012, 22:10

I have a mk3 gti 8v 1996 p/reg. It starts and drives as normal, but when you come to a junction/roundabout and put your foot on the clutch, it cuts out. it starts again no problem then at the next junction the same happens.

Please can someone let me know what it may or my not be???

Cheers
