Title: 8v judder/stutter/ have tried the common fixes! solved
Post by: GuvGTI on 12 October 2007, 15:35

I have searched quite thoroughly, but to no avail at the moment.

I until wednesday the car seemed to judder and stutter in the range of 1000-2200rpm when i put on the accelerator, holding revs didnt cause it. This must have an effect and hence loss of power. Not sounding smooth.

I have been to VW parts and bought and changed.

167 fuel pump relay
30 ecu relay
cleaned the throttle body with carb cleaner to best ability
cleaned and checked breather pipes
bought and changed the temp sender part number w6u0 919 501 b

all have no effect possibly slightly better but Its still present now!

Any ideas? its getting annoying now.

thanks

Is it missing?  Have you checked your HT leads?

guv could be worth checking the coil too....these can be a fault if they crack

got a compression test done, had the full engine checked aswell. I think i should next time think simple instead of jumping to conclusions. Changed the spark plugs and leads and all was ok, put some injector cleaner in the petrol and gna stick with super unleaded, bp ultimate v power etc now.
