Loss of Power
« on: 04 July 2003, 12:23 »
I have a MK4 GTI 125bhp which has done a lot of miles.  However recently I can be sitting at 90mph in 5th for some time and it will then suddenly lose power as if I have taken my foot off of the accelerator.  If i take my foot off and put it on again it is fine.

Any ideas
