« on: 08 September 2009, 14:36 »
hi i have a mk4 golf gti 1.8 turbo which now and then sounds like it is only running on 3 cylinders after about 5 mins the problem clears and car runs as normal some days the car runs with no problems i think it might be the MAF sensor but i don't know it has got the AGU engine. any help please.

maf, ignition amplifier or coilpack are likely suspects.
