efil4sbuD 0 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 For the last couple of years I've had a fault that has been steadily getting worse. I found that the engine was stuttering on a really light throttle and always between 1200-1800 revs. There was no problem at high speed or high revs but low down and especially on cold mornings, it was a real pain. I've been swapping parts and changing sensors with no effect until I finally got round to changing my fuel filter for a new one which has been in my shed for - 2 years!So, the fix was sitting there all along and I'm ashamed to say that the filter on the car was the original as the hoses were fastened with VW crimps. 15 years good running out of one filter isn't bad I suppose. At least I have confirmed that the intake system is in good order and my sensors should give me plenty more years of happy driving. Link to post Share on other sites
