TIP:

remove foot from loud pedal when changing gear  :grin:

Seriously though, have you gotor can get access to vagcom as it could be anything. What engine do you have DBW (drive by wire) or cable as this could be a problem witht the potetiometers on a dbw as they can stick and need replaced

 I think this is just teh way this engine is tbh. I know in my type-r's that ive had the revs rise and fall in an instant due to light flywheels etc. The Golf on the other hand rises then slowly drifts back down :wink:
