Random cut out??

[sbushby]

Hey all,
Strange one today. While driving along the car just died...pulled over and turned it over which it did fine. Didnt take straight away but when it did it popped and banged a bit before revving to 4k and slowly dropping.....then drove fine??
Started it later and again it was lumpy spluttering a bit before clearing then running fine??

Anyone had similair issues?

[VW BUSH]

my guess is the Coil

[Luke1981]

Could it be a faulty MAF sensor?

[sbushby]

Thanks guys.
Coil has been suggested and throttle body to. Ill clean the maf and see what happens. Thanks again

Unless you have been driving in very heavy rain and some electrical part got wet I would say the coil too!

[sbushby]

Replaced coil, dizzy and rota arm.....also plugs and leads.....still happening?? Cam position sensor next but beginning to get annoying

Sounds like the MAF to me as mine had a similar problem. Try unplugging the MAF then driving car. If it gets any worse its ok and if no different thats the problem Mate

Mine won't even start with the MAF disconnected.

If it's constant then possibly a blocked injector?

If it happens regularly when the engine gets hot then a sensor has to be the main suspect.

Valves don't have a maf. They have a map sensor in the ecu instead. Try the blue temp sensor, causes issues exactally the same on yours, just on the right of the head near the coolant flange

looking at your other post i would take a chance of either ecu or fuel pump relay, when the car is warm touch both and see if either are red hot, Both are known to fail and can cause some odd running issues but more so after several miles of running
replace as needed
